Description Torsten Zühlsdorff 2015-01-22 10:42:39 UTC

The FAQ says in chapter 4.1.2:
"AMD64 platforms currently deployed support up to 1 TB of physical memory."

This is currently no longer true since 10.0. There it was raised to 4 TB. Have a look at:
https://www.freebsd.org/releases/10.0R/relnotes.html

Chapter 2.2, fourth paragraph. Can somebody update this?
