And again, it's not about "fastest". The tricks kernel has to do to cope with 32-bit architecture are quite ugly. There are even problems that can't be resolved on i586 (I remember a guy having over 60% of his 2GB RAM unused but unable to add a netfilter rule because of memory allocation failure). You have fewer registers, leading to much less efficient function calling convention etc.
Most or all of the 32 bit hardware have less than 4 GB RAM, so you could drop the hacks needed to support more RAM. It would not impact me, I assume. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
