hi,
we are evaluating a Sun X2270, with 24 GB of memory.
initial boot shows:
Aug 19 09:07:51 x2270.cs.huji.ac.il kernel: real memory  = 15032385536 (14336 
MB)
(the date is wrong, but it auto-fixed via ntpdate later)

next reboots:
Dec 23 20:24:33 x2270.cs.huji.ac.il kernel: real memory  = 17179869184 (16384 
MB)
Dec 23 21:20:47 x2270.cs.huji.ac.il kernel: real memory  = 23622320128 (22528 
MB)
Dec 24 10:42:39 x2270.cs.huji.ac.il kernel: real memory  = 25769803776 (24576 
MB)
Dec 24 10:56:50 x2270.cs.huji.ac.il kernel: real memory  = 25769803776 (24576 
MB)
