So, I did some calculations;
I have an Amiga A4000D, decked out with the following hardware;
Mediator 4000Di
Radeon 256MB
Zorram 128MB
Spider 2
10/100 Ethernet
Indivision AGA
and soon to be Cyberstorm MK1 with 64mb of ram.
Now according to my calculations, that gives me 2mb of chip ram, and 16MB Fast, along with 113MB (from Radeon's first bank), 128MB (From Radeon's second bank, just need to add it in), 128MB from the Zorram card, and the soon to be 64mb from the Cyberstorm.
That's almost 450mb of Fast memory. Now the question is.. what can one do with so much memory on an Amiga?
I'm still shocked that a computer that was released in 1992 can address this much. It's too bad that Chip RAM is limited to 2MB. Would be nice if that little jumper that says 2MB or 8MB actually did anything. But that's all in hindsight of an architecture that otherwise had a lot of rather 'futuristic' notions at the time.

when i run doom or heretic it takes 10 meg fast ram just to start ..only program that eats ram is my picture viewer on slideshow ..let it run with huge cache an it can eat 100meg fast ram down to 20 meg in a hour or so..mysticview..still my favorite though ..
i WISH someone would come up with a way to increase chip ram ..how much faster would a 1200 be with 20 meg chip ram !!
