Scenario: - running lots of data scripts on MariaDB database that's several gigs large on local laptop - putting the maximum amount of memory (8 GB) on the laptop - current OS is Windows XP, but I understand from Dell support tech that I must use Windows 7 (or Vista) to take full advantage of extra memory beyond 3.5 GB
Am I right in thinking that I must run the 64-bit version of MariaDB to take full advantage of the memory beyond 3.5 GB on a Windows 7 machine? I don't want to get all this memory and then handcuff myself because I'm either using the 32-bit version of MariaDB and/or Windows XP.
