Hello,
I'll use PG on a dedicated machine with more than 4GB of memory.
The problem is: what would be better to use: PAE ("bigmem" kernels) or
64-bit kernel?
PAE pro: half the memory per pointer, int, etc.
PAE risk: is PG able to take advantage of all the memory on PAE, esp. re
things like shared buffers?
64-bit pro: it's more mainstream now, no worries about shared bufs etc.
PAE overhead according to wikipedia should be small. (?)
So, which one should be better?
