The FreeBSD patch, setting the value to 0x100000 seems to be enough for most of our zope servers, however, I've noticed that we get an occasional server death even with this value. This is on normal load, but handling many and large CMS operations in zope/plone.


Just curious. How much recursion are we talking about here??? Those CMS operations. 100 calls? 1000 calls?

If it's not near that, then the problem should be somewhere else.

So, any thoughts on even larger thread stacks?

Generally there should be no problems. The only case where the stack size *may* matter AFAIK, may be threads. Because each thread has its own stack --in non-stackless python-- stack size may be an issue if it's too much and there are **many** threads. Otherwise, it should not have any impact on performance.
