To add my $0.02 worth, I ran a kernel compile on 2.4.0-test1, ac22-riel and
ac22-class on a dual pentium-III 450Mhz with 384Mb and found no significant
difference in timings or page faulting. In fact the timings were within 0.1%
of each other!
However when trying to boot the machine with mem=16M the OS ignores me, is
the 820 memory sizing routine in setup.S overwriting my request? So I can't
tell you what impact low memory would have. Curiously mem=16 causes the
kernel to panic.... What's going on?
Chris.
