This is settable in LINT. The location you point to is enclosed in ifndef-endif for that variable name. In LINT: # # Certain applications can grow to be larger than the 128M limit # that FreeBSD initially imposes. Below are some options to # allow that limit to grow to 256MB, and can be increased further # with changing the parameters. MAXDSIZ is the maximum that the # limit can be set to, and the DFLDSIZ is the default value for # the limit. You might want to set the default lower than the # max, and explicitly set the maximum with a shell command for processes # that regularly exceed the limit like INND. # options MAXDSIZ="(256*1024*1024)" options DFLDSIZ="(256*1024*1024)" Hope this helps.[28~ State-Changed-From-To: feedback->closed State-Changed-By: pgollucci State-Changed-When: Wed Jun 24 03:48:33 UTC 2009 State-Changed-Why: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=12792 >Unformatted:
