Nice flashback to the '90s... Back in 1999, I worked with a 3 TB sized Oracle DB that was supposedly the biggest Oracle database in Europe on Windows! 32-bit Windows NT 4.0 running on a machine with 16 GB of RAM, so we had to use Oracle/Windows very large memory hacks to "swap" physical pages in to the 32-bit address space as needed...

Edit: Yes, we had blue screens every couple of weeks
