Bug? Barage of hits leads to failure creating worker threads / stats tracking

[Rafael Umann]

32 bits restrict you to use more than ~2.5gb of ram.

Try decreasing your cache size to see if you can open more threads  
(allocate memory for threads instead of using it all for cache) and  
also set the stack size smaller:

# vi /etc/security/limits.conf

* soft stack 512
* hard stack 512

(use 512kb of mem per thread)
or

* soft stack 1024
* hard stack 1024

(use 1mb of mem per thread)

[]s,
Rafael Umann
