RE: [Linuxsampler-devel] Polyphony, Was: MacOSX note release prob lem solved

[Peter R. <pet...@de...>]

Hi all,

Quick question from one of the "lurkers" on this list ;-)

What are the current memory addressing limits under Linux?

A lot of "heavy" Gigastudio users, like myself, are running into the 2 Gb
address space limit of the current Win32 OS's.

Just curious. If Linux does not have this limit, then that will be a super
advantage for LinuxSampler.

Take care,

I don't know if it's a big deal, but 32MB ram is nothing by todays
standards, 
I don't run any machines with less than 512MB (oh, I do have a file server 
with 256MB come to think of it). 
If it helps I would think it quite natural to increase the memory
consumption.
