I have two Gentoo systems (2.6.x) one with 4G and another with 8G. Both systems are are wicked fast. On the 4G `free` shows all but 21K of physical used, on the 8G there's still 2G free and the system is highly responsive. Can't remember which MB chipset I have, sorry. multiple Intel multicore cpu in both. ------=_Part_30336_6175493.1185816532727 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline

Thats not true, I run 32bit Gentoo with 4 GB Memory and has no slowdown
issues I can measure with the naked eye.

Seems to me like you have some hardware problem.


I have two Gentoo systems (2.6.x) one with 4G and another with 8G.  Both systems are are wicked fast.  On the 4G `free` shows all but 21K of physical used, on the 8G there's still 2G free and the system is highly responsive.  Can't remember which MB chipset I have, sorry.  multiple Intel multicore cpu in both.
