Max memory for SSIS

If we have a SQL Server 2005 standard edition/Windows 2003 Standard Environment on a 32 bit 2 dual core proc Dell 2850 server, what is the maximum size of the memory we could possibly have?

Thank you,

Shiva

SQL 2005 standard doesn't have a maximum memory, you are constrained by your OS and hardware. I think it's around 4 gigs for 2003 standard 32bit.|||

Is this a question about SSIS? If so, read this: http://blogs.conchango.com/jamiethomson/archive/2005/05/29/1486.aspx

If not, try a different forum.

The 32bit Windows limit is 2GB per process. You can increase this to 3GB, using the boot.ini switch, /3GB.

A classic tip around this is to use several packages and Execute Process Tasks to combine them, but set the out of process option on, as this means each package then gets 2GB as each is it's own process. For small packages this may be detrimental though.

Max memory for SQL 2000 standard edition

Hi, according to Microsoft max. memory is 2 GB. Someone says it is 4 GB.
Please, can you tell me which is really true. I need to buy right edition of
sql server...
thanksHi
SQL Server Standard Edition has a 2GB memory limitation.
Windows 2000/2003 Standard Edition has a 4GB memory limitation (but /3GB is
not supported)

2GB is the maximum for SQL Server 2000 32 bit Standard, no matter the patch
level.

2GB can be used even though the switch is set up. Are there officail
documents available on this issue from MSFT? Thanks.

Max Memory for each standard instance

If I have multiple standard instances installed, can I assign fixed memory to
each instance?
Like 2GB of fixed memory for each Standard instance.
In other words when microsoft says that the Max mem for standard edition is
2GB, do they mean for each standard instance, or for standard multiple
instances?
That's for each instance.
