Hi all.
I had a question about the sixty four bit port of Arch in general so
figured this would be an okay place besides IRC to obtain any help I
needed.
I wanted to find out ruffly how much memory Arch sixty four will use
for any program in general, regardless of GUI/console?
I have an Intel 2 core dule T9600 2.80 GHZ, 4 Gb of RAM installed,
with a 320 Gb hard-drive installed in my laptop.
I tend to put a lot of RAM aside for virtual machines specifically. At
present due to some requirements, I'm using Arch virtually on top of a
Windows Seven host.
I want to put this setup later on to Linux, and for now am doing fine
with this virtual stuff. However I should mention that the host is
32-bit at present, and I was curious how much RAM is used in general
under pure Arch 64?
I would probably attempt to alocate about 3GB from the system.
Anyone using virtualization and VMs heavily on any platform is aware
of the RAM requirements, surely.
I was just curious if I'd be making a mistake and/or if this would be
possible?
Thanks!

It is barely noticeable. I wouldn't give it a second thought.
