I was faced with a similar problem last autmumn - we had been running 6.2
on a set of servers with 4 gig or RAM, but purchased new servers with
16 gig in them. I experimented with various

Seems just the same as i386.
Some poorly written software fails to run properly in 64-bit

Several people have already pointed out that you can either
run FreeBSD/i386+PAE or FreeBSD/amd64 (64bit).
However, there's an important piece of

Is PAE really that stable? I thought it was fairly unpolished, mainly
because PAE is seen as a weak kludge implemented by Intel because they all
thought we would all be using Itanium's by now. Intel reversed their folly
pretty quickly, adopted the x86-64
Architecturally, it's a nasty kludge. As far as stability on FreeBSD is
concerned, my only machine under PAE with 4 GB RAM (without PAE it would
use a bit over 3 GB) is very solid on 6-STABLE.
To the original poster - does a PAE kernel actually boot on your
16 gig machines ? My problem was
Thank you all for your suggestions. I have been trying to push to move to amd64
architecture for all the reasons you all stated. For the record, we tested PAE
on one machine, booted the kernel w/ nextboot and it crashed about 15 minutes
later. I will consider configuring a dump device to

Siding with most of the group (go amd64), I'll add my own comment:

Is there a known solution / patch ? Except the rollback :)
