I think that agrees with my "industrial grade" comment. :-) In production we are currently deploying boxes with 256GB of RAM. But for our backup server, it's hard to spend more on RAM than on the disks in it. The box is capable of it, it's just the cost that makes it unappealing for this use. For various reasons, the backup server doesn't get much priority.
