Ok, but this was with "sample test programs", it can be said. True. But that thread originated because the OP had found a particular application (sorry, I don't remember which) which used huge amounts of memory, and in 64 bits it doubled the already huge amount.
Sample programs. or even single real-life programs are meaningless in this context (unless there is a memory leak or a design issue).. what matters is whole-system performance/memory usage and the tradeoffs involved..
Well, when I have time, I can do identical 32 and 64 bit installs, under vmware, and compare memory usage with identical loads. What I have said here is that I know that there are applications that use double. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
