Hey all. I'm hoping for some advice here. I've just started a new job and one of the things they want me to do is to build a linux farm/cluster for running large simulation and regression tests.
Some of these tests can be up to 4GB and in time they will grow larger. I have a limited understanding of the hardware restrictions of linux and have had a hard time finding good answers to these questions by searching google. So my questions are: * In the new 2.4 kernels can a single process address more then 2Gb of RAM? More then 4Gb of RAM? * Is this architecture dependent? If so what are the differences. * What is the hard limit for the total amount of ram usable by a 2.4 kernel. If I've missed a good place to read about all this pointers would be much appreciated as well. Thanks, Adam.
