State-Changed-From-To: closed->open
State-Changed-By: dholland%NetBSD.org@localhost
State-Changed-When: Wed, 27 Apr 2011 21:20:46 +0000
State-Changed-Why:
I can:
% dd if=/dev/zero bs=102400 count=1024 of=biggy
1024+0 records in
1024+0 records out
104857600 bytes transferred in 1.101 secs (95238510 bytes/sec)
% echo foo >> biggy
% grep foo biggy
Binary file biggy matches

So far so good. Now:
% limit memoryuse 1024k
% limit vmemoryuse 1024k
% limit stacksize 1024k
% limit datasize 1024k
% grep foo biggy 
Cannot map anonymous memoryCannot allocate memory: Cannot allocate memory
Exit 1
