--- Comment #3 from punkt.de Hosting Team <mops@punkt.de> ---
This seems not to b a bug but intended behaviour introduced by a recent
upstream change. On 64 bit systems he server tries to allocate 8 TiB on startup
for dynamic growth of the buffer pool.

This leads to interesting effects (as Wolfgang pointed out) in environments
with resource limits in effect, e.g. jails.

Reference:

https://mariadb.com/docs/server/server-usage/storage-engines/innodb/innodb-system-variables#innodb_buffer_pool_size_max

We probably should deliver a sane default configuration and some comments in
the server.cnf.
