I enable 4g highmem, rather than the 1g option as it is a realistic
possibility that an Arch user may have 2g or more.

As for the modules, previously, some those and many many more were
*compiled-into* your kernel. Now, you would most likely have less
loaded than before, as there is substantially less compiled into your
kernel.
