Would it be wise to enable PAE on i686 if it is not already done? Just a
thought of something for 1.5.
What are your arguments for it?
Here are mines against it:
- it's slow
Yes, it _was_ slow, but now till 16GB there is no real slowdown
- it affects systems where PAE is not needed
- show me a system with 4G of RAM whose CPU is not 64bit-capable
Just think a bit: if there is a system that needs more cpu power and
more ram, but the application does not support 64bit (probably a binary
application), the PAE can be useful.
