Well, according to the 'memconf' utility that I've got here:
"WARNING: The 32MB SIMM is not supported in the SS10 or SS10SX according to
Sun. However it does work correctly depending on the Open Boot PROM
version. This system is running OBP 2.12, so 32MB SIMMs will only be
recognized as 16MB SIMMs. You should upgrade to OBP 2.19 or later in order
to be able to detect and utilize 32MB SIMMs."
...this indicates that 32MB SIMM's will work in a SS10 if you have a new OpenBoot PROM. When I have got my new 2.25 PROM I'll test it.
