Thnak you for answer.
We can NOT use X86_64 due to application NOT support 64 bits.
If I take some RAM out of server (for example take out 32 GB RAM and left 32 GB RAM on server), will problem fix?
Thanks.

This server have 64 GB RAM and run

any one know why?
Is CENTOS X86 5..5 really NOT stable version?
no, using 32 bit PAE with 64GB of memory means your page tables are using ALL of the available 1GB kernel address space available. the 32 bit kernel chokes itself under these extreme conditions. this is an architectural feature of the Intel x86, the "solution" is 64 bit mode where the page tables and kernel and a user process don't all have to fit into 4GB of address space.
