Linux Kernels 2.7.* and up support 4 Petabytes
Hi all
just noting whilst MS is mulling over a 128 bit version of the OS, the current Linux kernel (2.7.X) supports 4PB RAM 4 Petabytes -- not that I've even SEEN a system with that much. I haven't even seen a PC with 1 TB of RAM yet. Most of us still wonder what to do with > 4GB RAM.
What exactly would you run on it apart from a Big Brother app watching over every inhabitant on the planet from cradle to grave.
Cheers
