Please excuse this question but I am not a hardware nor sysadmin person. I just 
need verification of what I suspect to be the truth.
A client of mine to whom I recommended Solaris 10 has a large sun box with 32 
gig of memory. Because a third party library isn't supported in 64 bit address 
space, he is forced to run in 32 bit address space so he will have 
addressability to approx 4 Gig. I can't risk running the third party package in 
virtual 32 bit mode. 
He is running Java applications. 

Question. Does Solaris operating in 32 bit address configuration not use the 
the remaining 28 Gig? He insisted that Solaris could use the remaining space. 

Can anyone answer this newbie question or point me to the right documents.
