Hi,
I clearly have a problem figuring out how to increase the limits for
memory available to a process and the kernel.
I'm running a Perl app that need lots of memory and I would like to
make around 2G available to it, the box has 4G physical RAM.
Which knob(s) should be tweaked? System is running 6-STABLE from
around 1st of October.
This is what I see when the process exits:
Out of memory during "large" request for 528384 bytes, total sbrk() is
536416256 bytes
I'm depending on a solution to this and would be a really happy person
if someone could please guide me.

You should try setting kern.maxdsize in /boot/loader.conf and then
reboot the system. This sysctl sets the maximum data size of a running
process you may also have to tune some of the limits using ulimit. The
example below sets the max data size to 1.5Gb:
kern.maxdsiz="1610612736"
