(Yes, I just posted the question about the 1500 and its max memory).

Question:  How much memory can NetWare 4.1 efficiently address?  How
about for 3.12?

The reason I ask is that I recall seeing some folks say that if you
kept increasing memory, NetWare would take so long to go through the
memory to see if a particular file was in its cache, that the response
was actually slower than having a smaller configuration, where it
would have to get it off disk.  I would be grateful to told what the
limit is or if this is simply not true.

We have 3.12 now.  We are buying another server at some point and,
while we might not be ready for 4.1 now, we may end up getting it
sooner or later.

Thanks for your help.

Regards,

Tom Kustner
