Hello Gurus, 1. Do you have any idea whether CentOS 3.5 is built out of RHEL AS or RHEL ES?
2. Can a single process use more than 32 Gbytes of RAM in CentOS 3.5 ? Is there any limitation that you experienced? Thanks for your time. Siva.

Neither. The main difference between AS and ES is the support service. There are also some changes on the package set. On that case, either the software is non-distributable (so can't be on CentOS), or it is on the RHEL source tree (and on CentOS).

The SRPMS are the same for both AS and ES. We build with no artificial restrictions to number of CPUs, etc. So CentOS is comparable to AS from that point of view.

According to http://www.redhat.com/en_us/USA/rhel/details/limits/, RHEL3's max memory on i386 and x86_64 is 64GB. On x86_64, I don't know of anything limiting a process to using as much of that as it can get (that doesn't mean that there isn't a limit, but I don't know that there is). On i386, of course, you'll get only ~4GB/process.
And if you're running x86_64, I'd strongly recommend centos 4 (which has the same limits).
It is built out of RHEL 3.0 SRPMS. I have downloaded and installed them for a specific purpose where only RHEL 3.0 was required and it works very well.
