456 | Select the desired split between kernel and user memory. | ||
457 | |||
458 | If the address range available to the kernel is less than the | ||
459 | physical memory installed, the remaining memory will be available | ||
460 | as "high memory". Accessing high memory is a little more costly | ||
461 | than low memory, as it needs to be mapped into the kernel first. | ||
462 | Note that increasing the kernel address space limits the range | ||
463 | available to user programs, making the address space there | ||
464 | tighter. Selecting anything other than the default 3G/1G split | ||
465 | will also likely make your kernel incompatible with binary-only | ||
466 | kernel modules. | ||
467 | |||
