Yep, every 64-bit address is twice as long as a 32-bit address. 2Gb address space can be addressed with 32-bit, hence using 64-bit you have a lot of waste just for addressing your objects.
I doubt that you have only 2Gb RAM on your Mac. So, 64-bit systems are a complete waste and usually slower, if you want to assign only 2 Gb of RAM. With larger memory spaces a 64-bit system will fly. ----- ____________________________ Dr Christian Maul Project Manager Information Services Branch Department of Sustainability and Environment Level13, Marland House, 570 Bourke Street Melbourne 3000 PO Box 500, East Melbourne Vic 3002 Telephone: +61-3-8636 2325 Telefax: +61-3-8636 2813 -- View this message in context: http://osgeo-org.1560.n6.nabble.com/Same-Configuration-Different-computer-very-slow-tp5028863p5029753.html Sent from the GeoServer - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Master Visual Studio, SharePoint, SQL, ASP.NET, C# 2012, HTML5, CSS, MVC, Windows 8 Apps, JavaScript and much more.
