Might this "150" be a typographical error and you wanted to write 150000?
Your reference to the Red Hat documentation states 150000 to be the 
default in Red Hat, and in my Debian, where I have not touched this 
value, it is also set to 150000. My Debian was installed as Buster 
(maybe as even older Stretch?) and then upgraded to Bullseye.

Best wishes,
Marco
