Taken from our /boot/loader.conf, which also explains what some of the
values are actually for.  Machine has 2GB of RAM.  And yes, set those
and reboot.

# Increase maximum allocatable memory on a process to 768MB.
# We don't choose 2GB (our amount of RAM) since that would
# exhaust all memory, and result in a kernel panic.  Maximum
# stack size is still set to 128MB.  One can view these
# settings using limits(1).
#
# dfldsiz = Initial data size limit (bytes)
# maxdsiz = Maximum data size limit (bytes)
# dflssiz = Initial stack size limit (bytes)
# maxssiz = Maximum stack size limit (bytes)
#
kern.maxdsiz="768M"
kern.dfldsiz="768M"
kern.maxssiz="128M"
