Hello,

I'm deploying a new server with FreeBSD 4.10-Release and I'll need a
quite big piece of memory.
I was thinking of installing 1 Gb of RAM plus another Gigabytes of
swap.
I seems to remember some limit / problem when RAM + swap go over 2 or
4 Gbytes total, is this true ?
(without PAE or similar things, it's a "normal" P4 machine)

I would avoid to tweak kernel parameters, if possible, like KVA pages
and similar things I don't know ;)

Anyone with similar experiences could, please, remember me actual
limits ?

Many thanks in advance!
