Desktop follies: feeding (part 2)

For console logins (typical desktop or laptop), the relevant settings are for staff in /etc/login.conf. I cranked up a few settings:

#
# Staff have fewer restrictions and can login even when nologins are set.
#
staff:\
        :datasize-cur=infinity:\
        :datasize-max=infinity:\
        :datasize=infinity:\
        :openfiles-cur=1024:\
        :stacksize-cur=16M:\
        :maxproc-max=512:\
        :maxproc-cur=512:\
        :ignorenologin:\
        :requirehome@:\
        :tc=default:

but for real effect in /etc/sysctl.conf I kept doubling kern.shminfo.shmall= until I had

kern.shminfo.shmall=268435456

Then I swithched browsers (to firefox). Using Libreoffice is still a gamble inside 4GB RAM, though.
