Do any of you have experience with 64 bit machines?  What is the
biggest Prevayler database you've seen?

Memory is cheap.   it is probably cheaper to buy a machine with 64 GB
than to rewrite your software for another database.  Of course, if you
have 100 TB of data then Prevayler is just not going to cut it.  But 4
GB is so small these days.  My USB key has more memory than that.
