Increased Memory <strong>for</strong> 32-<strong>bit</strong> Applications<br />
32-<strong>bit</strong> server, 4 GB DRAM<br />
• OS & App share small<br />
32-<strong>bit</strong> VM space<br />
• 32-<strong>bit</strong> OS & applications<br />
all share 4GB DRAM<br />
• Leads to small dataset<br />
sizes & lots of paging<br />

<strong>64</strong>-<strong>bit</strong> server, 12 GB DRAM<br />
• App has exclusive use of<br />
32-<strong>bit</strong> VM space<br />
• <strong>64</strong>-<strong>bit</strong> OS can allocate<br />
each application large<br />
dedicated portions<br />
of 12GB DRAM<br />
• OS uses VM space way<br />
above 32-<strong>bit</strong>s<br />
• Leads to larger dataset<br />
sizes & reduced paging<br />
