Just add vm.kmem_size=VALUE to /boot/loader.conf.  That way you don't
need to rebuild a kernel.   I run with vm.kmem_size=429391872

Even after bumping the limits, I'm seeing a repeatable panic when
allocating a large amount of kernel memory ("panic: pmap_enter:
attempted pmap_enter on 4MB page").  See yesterday's message
with that subject for details..
