IP27 currently the only system that absolutely needs discontiguous memory in order to work at all. A few other systems could make use of discontiguous memory to reduce the waste of memory - the family of Broadcom SB1 based systems comes to mind. > Has anybody already done this ?

IP27 has one added extra complexity, it's a NUMA system but you can ignore that. Ralf
