Crazy idea. 32GB RAM modules in a cMP. Anyone tried this?

Anyone know if it runs at full clock speed with 192gb installed that way?

32GB RDIMMs that work with MacPro5,1 are 4Rx4 RDIMMs, so, 1066 or 800MHz when installed to a Nehalem/Westmere Xeon.

Since the latency will be lower than at the nominal frequency, the penalty is not so much noticeable in the great scheme of things.
