64 bit VM?

What is the status on the 64 bit VM effort?  Is that VM ready for use?  I am
considering a project that Squeak would be good for, but I need a very large
image (20GB-2TB).  Can the garbage collector deal with this?  Is there
enough locality for the OS virtual memory system to work?  The 64 bit Sun VM
has been tested with 100s of GB of heap.  Has anything like this been done
in Squeak?
