Indeed:

         return (tbsize = (int)rl.rlim_max);

seems to be a bit excessive.
But I'm not sure how else to determine a good value.
Thorsten, would be changing this to the soft limit appropriate, e.g:

         return (tbsize = (int)rl.rlim_cur);

?
Btw. the RedHat bugzilla indicates that enabling nscd would also fix the
excessive memory consumption.

What do you think?
