Thanks!
OpenBSD makes a _postgresql user on install and it is in the daemon class with
the following values:
daemon:\
:ignorenologin:\
:datasize=infinity:\
:maxproc=infinity:\
:openfiles-cur=128:\
:stacksize-cur=8M:\
:localcipher=blowfish,8:\
:tc=default:
The OpenBSD specific readme suggests making a special postgresql login class
and bumping openfiles-cur to 768 but I don't see how that helps here. Would
bumping stacksize also help?
