Hi! It seems that I need to buy a 64bit server and have some questions regarding the two architectures from AMD (Opteron) and Intel (Xeon with EM64T).
Am I right if I say an Opteron based server is the better choice for MySQL because of the more advanced and faster bus system? Is there anywhere a good benchmark out there where I could see the performance differences between the different architectures (PIII, P4, Xeon, Opteron etc.) when running MySQL? How much memory could MySQL use on a 64 bit system running a 32 bit Linux distribution? Can I run MySQL in "64 bit mode"? Thank you for your help!
