The current default in trunk is only 32768. What kind of memory usage are you
seeing?

If you are on a Linux platform, you can use Massif (a tool in the Valgrind
family) to get a better idea where the memory usage is coming from by running

./tools/valgrind-wireshark.sh -m myCapture.pcap

and then

ms_print massif.PID
