While the VMM _can_ address the issue of _all_ programs using more than 1-3GiB or even 4GiB _total_ for _all_ applications, it can_not_ address the program's issue of allocating more memory than allowed by 32-bit/4GiB pointers.
This is exactly what I've been saying right from the start.
We're not talking programs that have to "work with" the kernel at "it's level" to allocate total memory in excess of what can be done for typical process user-space -- let alone _hard_ 32-bit/4GiB pointer limitations.
I didn't think we were, no. /Per Jessen, Zürich -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com
