This came up for an unrelated reason in #fedora-devel the other day, because Fedora (and I suspect Debian as well) has a policy of sticking as close to upstream as possible it uses the shmmax of the upstream kernel - which is as you note quite low. In RHEL and other EL6 derivatives this value is modified and set much higher.

OK, learned something because I didn't suspect that Fedora would be so 
low because its set higher in RHEL en for example CentOS that I use on a 
db production platform.
Thought that Fedora and RHEL were much closer.
