Bigmem support (4 gigas) is stable?
Hello
I should add 1 giga of RAM to a machine which already has 1 giga. I know I will have to configure bigmem support in the kernel (2.2.19). I would like to know if this option is considered really stable and tested or I can expect some problems, because this is a heavy loaded critical server and in case of doubt I'll habilitate another server instead of giving more RAM to the one I already use.
Thanks in advance

I have a gigabyte GA-7DXR (athlon 1.33ghz) with 1.25GB of ram pumping out 100,000 postgresql database-driven emails per hour with 2.4.5-ac7, so I figure it's fine.
