Maximum RAM capacity on the new Mac Pro?

[alfa147x]

It's mostly for PoC work and will not be deployed into production. The application that will be running on the box needs 25 GB of RAM just to run. It's also portable it's hard to find a box that can hold 128GB - 256GB of RAM and carry on a flight with you.

PoC? Proof Of Concept?

Seems like a mostly academic question with questionable real world impact - but would still like to see the OP's results

Really the cases where 16gb can't get the job done have to be few. You could fire up multiple websphere instances and have a reasonable oracle instance all while still having respectable amounts of RAM for user space. Anything more demanding than that and you should terminal out to it. Heck even the pros upload to a render farm to process that crap amirite ;oP

Correct

Since the software has to load it's self into the RAM with 32GB I'm only left with 5GB - 10GB of usable space.
