Besideds PAE some people have mentioned running an amd64 system.

One thing to consider is that PAE in 6-stable (6.3 and beyond)
is considered very stable, so if you can't make the jump to amd64
system because you'd have to recompile too much, you might have luck
updating sources to 6-stable and trying that kernel, then installing
6.3 userland.

good luck,
