The limit's the same with RHEL 5 and 6.

Your 32-bit applications will be restricted to 4 Gb of memory each anyway. If you must use x86, memory over 16 Gb is pretty much wasted, unless you install x86_64 and virtualize x86 as necessary. -- Yves Bellefeuille <y...@storm.ca> "La Esperanta Civito ne rifuzas anticipe la kunlaboron de erarintoj, se ili konscias pri sia eraro." -- Heroldo Komunikas, n-ro 473. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
