Nothing artificial about it - in production, I can run many more postfix instances on 32bit than on 64bit. I have been doing this for more than ten years. In this environment, I haven't noticed any drawbacks of i586, but please do enlighten me.
So.. what's so special about postfix in this case ? there is an scalability problem.. that someone may be able to look at. This is not a reason to keep the i586 builds around, it is a reason to investigate why you can't do that in the 64bit version.
The 64bit version uses up more memory, that's all.
While indeed the size of pointer is bigger and that may/will have an impact in memory consumption.. Your problem looks very suspicious to me.. when it was the last time you tried to do this ? in which openSUSE version, postfix version and kernel version ? ohh and what is the amount of postfix instances that the 32 bit machine can run vs the 64 bit one ? did you tried memory compression ? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
