Subject: [9fans] Fossil+Venti system memory requirements to be aware of?

Anyone able to tell me whether or not there are
disk size limits I should beware of given a limited
amount of system memory in a file server?

What I'm wanting to try and do is get a hardware
RAID1+0 enclosure and put in 20TB of  disk (so
10TB of usable space).

The board I am looking at will take up to 8 gb of
system memory.   Is that going to place any sort
of a limit on fossil+venti partition sizes?

There are old threads that discuss a problem
with venti and the user hitting swap (the amount
of memory wasn't specified, at least not as
far as I could find in my archive or via google).
