Remigiusz, If you work with 32bit OS you need apply hugemem package for work with big memory settings.
I work with 64bit OS and you don`t need apply any package. In order to add more memory for the Innodb using innodb_buffer_pool_size you don`t have any restrictions. You can set 10G, 20G depend of your phisical memory. Now, for the innodb_log_file_size, the combined size of the InnoDB log files must not exceed 4 GB. If you have 2 log files, you can make each at most 2000 MB in size. When you startup your MySQL using innodb, in your my.cnf you can set the variable innodb_log_files_in_group. For example, if your set innodb_log_files_in_group=2 ( ib_log_file001, ib_log_file002 are created) the total size must not exceed 4G.
