Jeremy> Does anyone have a platform where this limit is no low enough?

Yes, apparently I do. My laptop is configured so:

 Pentium III
 128MB RAM
 211MB swap
 Mandrake Linux 7.1

It spits out 2400 as the last successful test, even fresh after a reboot with no swap space in use and lots of free memory and nothing else running besides boot-time daemons.
