Very good point.

As mentioned in the discussion cited by rocket357, enabling BIGMEM now is done hoping that the major bugs will be caught during this development cycle. If not, the code will likely remain in 5.0, but in a disabled state. Definitive decisions will be made towards the end of the development period.

For those who would like/want BIGMEM to remain, install -current & report any problems found. Reporting problems is crucial.
