Considering https://www.supermicro.com/products/system/4U/8048/SYS-8048B... which is a plain old 4U server not some fancy, super expensive NUMA machine can eat up 12TB memory, this quip and parent has quite some merits.
6TB is not even https://memory.net/product/s26361-f3843-e618-fujitsu-1x-64gb... horrible at 57 504 dollars. That's about 48 engineering days if your engineer related expenses are 150 an hour (and it's likely they are more).
> SGI UV 300 now scales up to 64 CPU sockets and 64TB of cache-coherent shared memory in a single system.
This is the current limit of Linux hardware memory support so going above it is tricky. But still, 64TB.
