I don't own any applications Marty, neither 32 or 64 bit but there is some OSS software that can take advantage of 64bit. > What you are trying to build will probably have more bugs, be less > secure, and possibly run slower, than the mainstream 32 bit build. That a 64bit version runs slower I know, the bins are larger so it needs more mem. and most bins are a bit slower on startup. My main thought was that "unknown makes unloved" so the less there's known about a platform the less vulnerabilitys there are known... (but if I end up with an highly unstable, unusable or insecure system I will drop all efforts and use mainstream) -- Groetjes Japie -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/hlfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
