Large SHARE-Values with Apache::SizeLimit under FreeBSD 5.3-STABLE

Hello,

I am using mod_perl and try to limit the size of a few processes
using Apache::SizeLimit under FreeBSD 5.3-STABLE.

This works correctly with 

$Apache::SizeLimit::MAX_PROCESS_SIZE = 60000;

which will usually fire after about 2000 requests, but if I look
at the message I get (debugging is switched on), I get very huge
values for SHARE:

SIZE=66176 KB  SHARE=7105680 KB  REQUESTS=1167  LIFETIME=6935
SIZE=60132 KB  SHARE=15229500 KB  REQUESTS=2701  LIFETIME=63944
SIZE=60044 KB  SHARE=11913516 KB  REQUESTS=2127  LIFETIME=58405

Unfortunately I cannot debug the application itself (proprietary code).

Is this typical behaviour for SHARE? Or am I missing something here?
Explanations very welcome. I really couldn't sleep very well last night...

Regards,
Holger Kipp
