+ help
+ Select the desired split between kernel and user memory.
+
+ If the address range available to the kernel is less than the
+ physical memory installed, the remaining memory will be available
+ as "high memory". Accessing high memory is a little more costly
+ than low memory, as it needs to be mapped into the kernel first.
+ Note that increasing the kernel address space limits the range
+ available to user programs, making the address space there
+ tighter. Selecting anything other than the default 3G/1G split
+ will also likely make your kernel incompatible with binary-only
+ kernel modules.
+
+ If you are not absolutely sure what you are doing, leave this
+ option alone!
