Let me preface my comments by saying that this discussion isn't very productive, and I think the incessant arguing should stop.

Solaris 7 and above on a 64bit kernel can use swap partitions greater than 2GB.  For example:

dev-null:{bretta}$ cat swap-l.out
swapfile             dev  swaplo blocks   free
/dev/md/dsk/d2      85,2      16 62887728 62887728
dev-null:{bretta}$ cat swap-s.out
total: 17919928k bytes allocated + 218824k reserved = 18138752k used, 33329144k available

Also, here's a document on SunSolve.

(Although this document isn't 100% clear, it does say that Solaris 2.6 and 32 bit kernels can only use a 2GB swap file or partition.)
