Well, the idea was to run many instances of the app (each process does not need more than a couple of gigs of ram). Using virtualization is another option, but it will require a lot more maintenance of every VM. It would be a lot better if a single OS can use PAE.

After all if its a 32bit app it cant address all the ram anyhowhelp
