Well, I am not convinced about this. Especially that SLE no longer has an x86 implementation.
I'm going to say something that will be very unpopular but I feel it really needs to be said. Should we really care so much about i586? I don't have any 32-bit system since something like 2008, I definitely haven't seen any 32-bit x86 CPU in usual e-shops for at least 5 years and I'm not sure I would be able to buy one today if I tried hard.
A 32-bit system can run far more postfix and dovecot processes than a 64bit with the same amount of memory.
If you want to run that many postfixes, you would rather want to use a X32 userspace, and not a i586 one.
Completely agree, but I have yet to try that out, one of these days I will. I can't help wondering if there are any issues in 32bit apps communicatiung with 64bit apps? E.g. a 32bit postfix talking to a 64bit mysql?
Unless one of those components is doing something terrible wrong, there should be no problem.. in your example, a postfix plugin is probably sending SQL queries to the database using the mysql client library. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
