I don't know if that is the ultimate solution but it does work and so
does popping out one memory chip from the 525.

John, can You explain, why do You use so much of RAM?
I put 2 GB in my machines only because I do not have swap partition on SSDs.

IIRC, the ram choices were pretty limited on the 525 to 2 or 4Gb... so

True, but who's to say that LinuxCNC won't eventually be supported on the
64 bit OS? Eventually, you won't be able to buy a 32 bit machine except
from the antique store.
At least for PCs I think there is no way to get 32bit-only capable
system. All
