I wanted to install Avast (I have a Windows partition and deal with Windows computers and files a lot) but it comes up with an error when trying to update. It seems fixing it requires changing the amount of shared memory the kernel can use.

Is this a good idea? Could it effect stability of the OS or cause problems with other programs?
