[SunHELP] Stack Size in Solaris 2.6

Hi Admins,
           In a Ultra 3500 box with Solaris 2.6 when running a application
we get Out of stack space error. The stack size paramater in    /etc/system
is set like this:

set lwp_default_stksize=0x4000
set rpcmod:svc_run_stksize=0x4000

If I have understood it right it's at 64 MB???. Also ulimit, system wide and
for the user who has run into the problem, the stack size is at 8K.  I
increased it system wide and for user also to 12k using the
command ulimit -s. Still the same error message persists.

Will this be solved by increasing the value set in /etc/system?. If so
by how much can I bump the value. The application wise there seems to
be no problems as it runs fine in a dev environment. In  test environment I
get this problem.

Request your valuable feedback/inputs in this regard.

Thanks,
Balaji
