I guess the only hope is to find pin-compatible Xeons that are 64bit
to replace what is a large chassis with 24 slots of disks that has
specific motherboard form-factor, etc. We have 6 of these things from
a government grant that must be used for the stated purpose. So, yes,
we can buy product, bu

Dell (arrggh! Not THEM!) sells PowerEdge servers with plenty of PCI

dual-core x2100s for under $2k. I'm sure one can pick up a whitebox
single-core Opteron for around $1k. That's not unreasonable to ask

No, I don't think so.
And Geode?

I think it would still be ideal to allow tweaking of things at runtime
to make 32-bit systems more ideal.
I respectfully disagree. Even on x86

I think it would still be ideal to allow tweaking of things at runtime
to make 32-bit systems more ideal.

Yup, your probably running up against the limitations of 32-bit kernel
addressability. We are currently very conservative in this environment,
and so tend to end up with a small cache as a result. It may be
possible to tweak things to get larger cache sizes, but you run the risk

Hello zfs-discuss,
Simple test 'ptime find /zfs/filesystem >/dev/null' with 2GB RAM.
After second, third, etc. time still it reads a lot from disks while
find is running (atime is off).
on x64 (Opteron) it doesn't.
I guess it's due to 512MB heap limit in kernel for its cache.
