Hi folks,

I would like to know your opinion on following issue.

UCD-SNMP-MIB [1] uses INTEGER32 instead of COUNTER64 for memory OIDs which 
limits the reporting to 2 TiB (using KiB as the base).
Large modern servers often contain more than 2 TiB of memory leading to the 
OIDs rolling over and reporting negative values.

How can it be solved? 
Can we just change the variable type? (I don't think so) 
Or can we add new variables, that will be COUNTER64 type? 
Or can the base be set to e.g. MiB instead of KiB in configuration?
