Fedora, and other distros install a PAE kernel if the hardware supports it.
Are there any negative effect on running a PAE kernel on a machine with less than 3-4Gb ram ?

Ubuntu 9.10 benchmarks including 32-bit and 32-bit PAE kernels: http://www.phoronix.com/vr.php?view=14477 "...we did not find using Ubuntu's 32-bit PAE kernel to have a dramatic performance impact whether it be positive or negative" The conclusion is probably the same for Fedora. Stability doesn't seem to be a real issue. | ||||
