Typically Amigas are maxed out at 128 MB Fast Ram on the accelerator card
(plus any other "FastRAM", which is attached via ZorroII/III bus or on the
mainboard, but that's comparably slow with 13 MB/s), because there are
usually no more CAS lines.
So, even when you would have 64 MB PS/2 SIMMS, you would only have 128M on a
(let's say) CyberStorm MK2 accel card...
