Hi all,

I'm having problems with memory in config service. I increased vsz_limit 
to 10GB but continue with this errors when try to reload or restart dovecot:

config: Panic: data stack: Out of memory when allocating 2147483688 bytes
master: Error: service(config): command startup failed, throttling for 2 
secs
config: Fatal: master: service(config): child 5512 killed with signal 6 
(core dumps disabled)

Dovecot has a lot of certificates TLS configured (SNI) (about 3k), but 
if I check the size of all of them is aprox 170MB on disk.Why does it 
need so much memory to boot? Is normal?


service config {
   vsz_limit = {{ vszlimit }}
}
