We've been running into problems with Analysis Services 32-bit hitting the
2gb ceiling... So my question is... Can Analysis Services address more that
2gb of memory on a "Win 2003 x64" server? If so, how much???

Also, we ran into the PAE and /3GB switch conflict... This is why we can
can only use 2gb's of memory....

Thanks...

Definitely. On 64bit machine Analysis Services can use memory above 3Gb.
There is not limit to all practical purposes.

Edward is right for an ia64 machine. For an x64 machine, with SQL Server
2000 SP4, you are limited to 4GB (running in WOW-mode). With SQL Server 2005
and x64 you will have virtually unlimited memory -- just like you have today
with the ia64 architecture.
