Is there a 4GB RAM limit for Oblivion?

All credit for the awesome 4gb patch program goes to Daniel Pistelli. Big thank you for Daniel’s permission to host here on nexusmods.com. Oblivion is poorly optimized for modern systems.

Is it OK to set Oblivion to 0?

Leave it set to 0, contrary to what other guides say. This setting is for those who have 1GB of RAM or less, who need more RAM to be freed because of unused cell data. bSelectivePurgeUnusedOnFastTravel is fine at being set to 1, as it unloads data only when fast traveling. No stuttering is caused by this as the unloading occurs during loadscreens.
