I'd like to add a note regarding the 4G/4G split issue. Unlike

So, in case it was not clear:
On the server, it's 64 bit by default except some rare (and now
vanishing) cases when that won't work for some odd reason.
On the desktop, it's still 32 bit for me, but I'm probably too
conservative. If you only use the stuff that's in the distro, then 64

For servers, 32-bit installations are our norm in only two cases: Xen

Number 1 is a bit off. But just a bit. Number 2 is solid. Number 3 is...
mostly irrelevant with CentOS. Number 4 is not
