I have few questions on this sheet -

1.WIR - It showing 2GB as memory switch.Is this max limit?.By default when we install the software how much memory is allocated to this process.I checked command line of WIR and all it shows -jtcc 1024.

To my understanding BI4.0 is 64 bit app and so WIR can go beyond 2gb RIGHT?

Correct - SAP issued a new document detailing the rationale behind the splits and the suggested RAM allocations: Best Practices for SAPBO BI 4.0 Adaptive Processing Servers.pdf that is a must read.

The bottom line is that one is typically restricted by your license and current RAM capacity so it’s a balancing act to spread accordingly.

The spreadsheet was our starting point - and was not the final allocation e.g. the Bridge requires 8GB !! minimal.
