Chapter 2 Reserving DRAM for SX Accelerated Applications 7
TABLE 2-2 below illustrates the physical address map of a system configured with one
4 MByte VSIMM installed in slot 4 and 16 MByte DSIMMs in the remaining slots.
Thus, on systems configured with 16 MByte DSIMMS, the maximum size of a
physically contiguous block of DRAM is 16 MByte. However, you can reserve
multiple blocks of SXDRAM on such systems. In order to be able to configure a
single block of SXDRAM greater than 16 MByte, the system must be configured with
64 MByte DSIMMs.
TABLE 2-3 illustrates a system configured with one 4 MByte VSIMM and seven 64
MByte DSIMMs.
