At more than 1GiB on Linux/x86, you must use a 4G+4G kernel
(this is the default) to see more than 960MiB. This causes a
signficant (10%+) performance hit. On more than 4GiB, it is
worsened as more extensive paging is used.
If you have 1GiB or less, you should rebuild with_out_ "HIGHMEM"
support which is a 1G+3G kernel, and you'll see better performance
(and memory will be limited to 9...

It's all speculation at this point. But there are _several_ factors.
But I'm sure the first time Intel saw AMD's x86-64/PAE52 presentation,
the same thing popped into my mind that popped
