| I just setup a new system with MySQL 5.0.22, and to my surprise i get
| this error in MySQL's log.
| 
| /usr/local/libexec/mysqld: Out of memory (Needed 237527040 bytes)
| /usr/local/libexec/mysqld: Out of memory (Needed 178145280 bytes)
| 
| The system has 1GB of ram, which is plenty for MySQLs configuration (its
| using the my-large.cnf, which is tuned for a system of 512MB)
| 
| 
| Why am i getting this error? I read somewhere that FreeBSD by default
| limits process size to 512MB, however the variables used to tune it do
| not seems to exist in FreeBSD-6.1 any more. How can i let MySQL use more
| memory?

If you're using a i386, the max process memory size limit is at 512M,
you'll have to tune kern.maxdsiz in /boot/loader.conf to say 1G.
