I\'m not too sure how to explain better, maybe you can give some help?\r\n\r\nbasically the guy has question about how system can utilize more than 4GB memory in 32 bit enviornment. I told them each process will only have 4GB addressable space, but with multiple processes they can utilize the whole physical memory (+swap), but seems the guy is still kinda confusing...\r\n\r\nand please correct me if there\'s anything incorrect in my previous responses
