            Bug ID: 195439
           Summary: [PlayStation] Increase the default pthread stack size
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Platform
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: chris.reid at sony.com

Our PlayStation platform has a very small stack size of 64 KB for new threads. With default jsc VM options, web workers would instantly stack overflow on a 64 KB stack.
The main thread stack size is more reasonable at 2 MB.
This has came up before with https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40103.

I tested with these jsc VM options:
maxPerThreadStackUsage = 64 * KB
softReservedZoneSize = 32 * KB
reservedZoneSize = 16 * KB

On linux with those options and `ulimit -s 64`, I ran javascriptcore-tests --memory-limited and there are still about 1,000 failures out of 55,000 tests.
There's 67 failures using `ulimit -s 512` and default VM options. 512 KB seems to also match the secondary thread stack size on iOS and Mac.
