How is the size of maxusers determined?

Hi,

I am trying to determine the default value of tunable parameter
"maxusers". Sunsolve states:

* maxusers is a tunable parameter at the kernel level that is set to the
number of megabytes of memory installed on the system

We have 16GB of memory. Does this mean that maxusers will be set to
16384? This seems unnecessarily high. Can any one give me any more info
regarding this??

Thanks
Ben
