These limits don't exist in the open-source xen product, which is what
the centos/Xen stuff is based on.

I've personally run CentOS x86_64 5.1 boxes with north of 16G ram-
there is nothing I am aware of that would stop you from putting as
much
ram as you want in a particular DomU.
You will be needing PAE, but that is default for CentOS i386/xen, so
it
should Just Work. make sure you install the libc6-xen package (should
be installed as a dependency.) The usual PAE limits apply.
I'm typing this message in emacs running on a DomU hosted on an i386/
PAE box
with 6G ram running CentOS5.1/xen.
Hi Luke,
Thanks for the confirmation; this is what I had understood but some of
the prior discussion scared me. :)
Regards,
Tom
