32gb seems pretty low? pretty routine in a lot of different domains to have processes using 10s/100s of gbs

  It's not pretty low, or objectively low, but it can be considered relatively low. The average amount of RAM in desktops and laptops is still <32 GiB. From this perspective it's a very high limit.

    Many servers have over 32 GiB of RAM.

      Get outta here, man. No way.

        I routinely work with one with 256 GiB of RAM.

          And you use that one to run minecraft servers. Riiiight.

            I didn't say that?

          Parent was being sarcastic. It kind of makes sense to expect 32 GB to fit every process on a desktop. But is that the main use case of OpenBSD? It would seem that the main use case would lean towards servers instead?
