[BlueOnyx:03955] Re: Memory Limit

[Stephanie Sullivan]

Be aware that .ELsmp kernels are PAE kernels too. If you are running a
multi-core (I think) if you install a PAE kernel it will only use one core.
I'd suggest that using an smp kernel if you are not sure. The additional
overhead on a single core system is minimal.

	Thanks,
