Hello,
I've got a handful of i386 boxes, and a handful of amd64 boxes running
a 32-bit application, the reasons for this exact configuration mystify
me as well as the deployment predates my time in the environment. Now
that the dataset the application is loading is rapidly approaching
512MB we're starting to tweak kern.maxdsiz and kern.dfldsiz to 1GB.
The i386 boxes are doing great, but we hit an issue with the amd64
machines in that 64bit apps seem to work fine, but the 32bit apps
running on the amd64 machines fail to be able to use more than the
i386 default of 512MB no matter what we set kern.maxdsiz to. I've also
tried compiling it into the kernel, which results in the same issue.
I tried starting the app with "limits -d 1090519040", and it seems to
fail as well. Limits does show the proper value for datasize of
1064960 kB.
We're locked into 32-bit binaries for this app at the moment thanks to
some uh... interesting libraries it uses, so the usual option of
recompile isn't available. I'd like to avoid traveling from San Jose
to Seattle, then Virginia, then Munich to reinstall the amd64 machines
with i386 machines if at all possible.
Uh... help?
