Is this value a specification for SER on how much memory to use total? Or is it how much memory to use in addition to what SER allocates by default and if so, what is that default?
This is the amount of shared memory used in total. By default ser uses 32Mb of shared memory.
You can run out also of "private" memory. This is a per process memory which can be alloc'ed faster (since it doesn't involve any locking). The "private" memory is used mainly for temporary stuff. You usually run out of it when starting ser, if you have a very big location table (the db tables are first loaded in the "private" memory). By default ser uses 1MB of "private" memory per process. To change it you have to modify PKG_MEM_POOL_SIZE definition in config.h and recompile.
