Some ideas we threw rounf the office, page size increase? 4 meg pages? turn off virtual memory?
Isnt this a little light on CPU's if your considering 16 Gig of ram? (yes I know its cheap) regards Thing -----Original Message----- From: Kourosh [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, 5 August 2003 10:10 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Anyone run LInux with 16GB RAM? Hi, Has anyone been able to get a Linux system, preferably Debian Woody, to run stably with 16GB RAM? I have someone who has a Dual Xeon proc system with 8GM RAM (8 x 1GB ECC registered) running Debian Woody and Oracle 9i with no problems. They would very much like to up this to 16GB (8 x 2GB ECC registered) but so far it crashes after 48 hours. I have had one person tell me that they have a quad proc machine with 16G RAM running fine with a self-compiled kernel.org 2.4.18 kernel, but we can't seem to get one working. We've enable HIGHMEM with and without HIGHMEM I/O but still no good. Any other positive reports with dual-proc machines and 16GB RAM? Patches, compiler settings, etc? M's to FR? Enlightening web sites or other docs? The memory and other subsystems have worked fine in other tests so those don't seem to be a problem.
