max-shm-memory (Solaris 11.1)

I wonder if someone can give a definitive answer on this, or point me to somewhere that does?

If I have a 64GB RAM server running Solaris 11.1 that will run a single Oracle instance, what is the correct setting to make for max-shm-memory?
Should it be 64GB, or something a bit smaller? Or something a lot smaller?

I have read the installation documentation, but it gives examples of 2gb, 4gb and so on. They don't seem relevant to a 64GB+ server
