No. PAE makes it possible for you operating system to address more then
4Gb of memory. Unless there is is specific support in the application
(there isn't) it will still be limited to a 32bit address space.

No, sorry. 3 or 4 years ago it might have made sense to add the
possibility to work around this limit (maybe by having several cache
children each with 2GB) - but it is hardly relevant any more. There
isn't much 32 bit hardware left these days.
