this is a kernel limit.

i got around it like by recompiling the kernel with these lines in the
kernel conf file:

options         MAXDSIZ="(768*1024*1024)"
options         MAXSSIZ="(256*1024*1024)"
options         DFLDSIZ="(768*1024*1024)"

and then these lines in /boot/loader.conf:

kern.maxdsiz="1610612736"
kern.dfldsiz="1610612736"
kerm.maxssiz="1610612736"

then a reboot.

and then putting unlimit in the zope start script (csh shell).

you should of course decide which numbers are best for you
