That doesn't answer Mike's question.  The _default_ i386 size is
512M, the _current_ values can be found using ulimit (getrlimit(2)).

Note that on non-PAE i386, the maximum process size is limited by the
kernel size - there is a total of 4GB address space available and by
default, the kernel has 2GB allocated to it.  This isn't quite enough
if you have 4GB RAM.
