You will never know how much of system memory (RAM) is mapped below the 4 GB physical address line.
Booting in UEFI mode, you will know how much memory is mapped below 4GB, though there is sometimes problems with fragmentation and not being able to use it all. One problem with the newest systems is starting to be having the video buffer mapped above 4 GB, which makes the system unusable to OS/2.
... 8 cores. Looks like there is something wrong with the thread scheduling (it blocks for extended periods).
Interesting, I run with 4 cores - newer seen. Any details?
I'm actually running tests on a tower, with an AMD hexcore processor and 3 Gb of usable memory installed (actually 8 GB in the system, but ArcaOS is not seeing the rest). Occasionally after installing the gamepad package previous to 2022-05-17 and with the current one, I've gotten a black screen trap, attempting to start a game with one of the xevents packages active.
I've attached a photo of the trap screen, if it is of any help - I have not determined a particular reason why it happens at the moment as I've only seen it four times and Best!
