The purpose of my posting was to refute the categorical
statement made by another poster that "More than 4 GB of RAM is
of absolutely no use for running a 32-bit application, whether
it be on a 32-bit or 64-bit operating system." <br>
<br>
Of course it is true that one of the most basic functions of an
OS is memory management. I said nothing that disagrees with
that.<br>

Even if a 32-bit application can only address 4 GB, any
additional installed memory can still be used by the OS and by
other processes if a 64-bit OS is being used. Having more than
4 GB means that a 32-bit application will have a lot less
contention for memory resources even if it can only access 1/2
or 1/3 of the total memory available to the OS.<br>
