What type of memory and where do We have a SunFire v20z ( Newisys 2100 http://www.aceshardware.com/read.jsp?id=55000254 ) which can take up to 16 GBytes DDR-333 ECC (four memory slots for each CPU). It runs with 6 GBytes with no problems (Oracle, custom search engine working out of memory). I think the hardware is certified both for SLES8SP3 and RHEL3, but do your own research before buying. Don't buy it from Sun, unless you have special developer discounts. There are alternative sources for it. The hardware is stable, performant, and relatively cheap (there are cheaper systems, but these have reliability problems, see Beowulf archives). > you get it at a reasonable price?
