I'm running BIND 9.6.1-P1 in a Solaris 10 server. There is a total of 32G of physical

"out of memory" errors. When these error occurs in syslog, although named is
still running it goes in a hung state.
I noticed that it occurs when named takes up 4G of memory. So it appears as if
there is 4G of memory usage limitation in this environment. Although there is
plenty of physical memory available, named is not able to go more than 4G.
I looked around and one way as documented by some Oracle DBA was to create
projects in Solaris 10 environment as in /etc/projects file and assign more
memory. I followed those steps but it didn't fix the issue.
Has any one come across this problem? Is there a way to find if the BIND is 32
or 64 bit?
The BIND pkg was downloaded from http://sunfreeware.com So we're not sure if
its 32 ot 64 bit.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Prabhat.

The latest Solaris patch for BIND provides version 9.6.1-P3, all be it
only as 32bit and thus limited also to 4gb.
Use file(1) command to see what the binary is:
$ file /usr/sbin/named
/usr/sbin/named: ELF 32-bit LSB executable 80386 Version 1 [FPU],
dynamically linked, stripped
$ named -V
BIND 9.6.1-P3 built with --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man
--with-libtool --bindir=/usr/bin --sbindir=/usr/sbin
--libdir=/usr/lib/dns --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var
--with-openssl --enable-threads=yes --enable-devpoll=yes
--disable-openssl-version-check --enable-fixed-rrset --disable-getifaddrs
