I'm looking at getting a Sunfire V880 that has four processor/memory boards 
(each board with 2 processors and 16Gb of RAM).  Specifically, 4 x Dual 900 Mhz 
CPU/Memory Board (8 x UltraSparc III and 16 GB RAM) 501-6334

What is the maximum amount of memory available to a single processor?  i.e., On 
an otherwise unloaded system, can I have a short C program malloc a 60Gb single 
chunk of memory and have it all in RAM?

Or am I limited to the 16Gb on the local processor board?

Or is the 16Gb per board split equally between the two processors per board, so 
that any processor can only allocate up to 8Gb?

thanks
