Actually this doesn't have much to do with performance.
The solaris default for semaphores and shared memory is
actually quit low.  KDE makes large use of semaphores
and shared memory and if an app goes to grab a semaphore
and it isn't available the app will usually die.  Therefore
these changes just make the system usable by KDE.
