<h3>Description</h3>
<p>Config file has parameter "shm_mem_size" (or "shm" or "shm_mem") which allows to set shared memory size (in Mb) via configuration file. This parameter worked well in 3.1.5. Now it does not work (4.4.2). Shared memory size is always 64Mb (default value). The only way to set another size is to use "-m" command line option.</p>
<h4>Reproduction</h4>
<ul>
<li>Set shm_mem_size=512 in configuration file</li>
<li>Start kamailio and check size of shared memory using "kamcmd core.shmmem"</li>
<li>Expected result: total size of shared memory should be 512 Mb (in bytes)</li>
<li>Actual  result: 64Mb</li>
</ul>
<h3>Possible Solutions</h3>
<p>A workaround is to use "-m" command line option to send shared memeory size.</p>
