ulimit stack information

Hi Darwin List,

I'm running out of stack space with an application I need to run. I have "ulimit -s 64000" in my .bash_profile. The highest value I can set is 65532. At 65533 it reports, "/usr/bin/ulimit: line 4: ulimit: stack size: cannot modify limit: Invalid argument"

I read somewhere that the kernel limits it to 64MB. I figure this is the right place to get a definitive answer and further information.

Is it 64 really the limit? How would I allow multiple processes to each have 128 or 256MB each? I'm comfortable recompiling a kernel if need be.

Thanks for any advice,

  -k.
