+ * Conservative estimates for thread use on 32bit systems where address
The total 32bit address space is 4GB. On a native 32bit Linux system, the
kernel eats 1GB out of that, leaving 3GB for the process. On a 64bit system a
32bit process has nearly all of the 4GB available to it. While running out of
physical memory can be handled by virtual memory (aka swap), the address space
is a hard limit and rpm can't handle running into it. Which is why the
estimates are very conservative.
