thanks for the reply. i have read lots of posts about problems with
mixing the 32 and 64 bit libraries/etc. that was my biggest concern,
that having the mixed environment would somehow slow down or fud up
the install.

I have never heard a good argument against installing multilib and
you can't switch short of starting over once you have a system set
up.. so I would recommend multilib unless you are building a
dedicated appliance with very limited storage.

ahoy all,
upgrading to a new machine for audio work, and it is Core 2
Duo-based, thus Gentoo amd64. just wondering if it is better to
install this as a multilib or no-multilib? i have searched and
found posts going either way, but they are a bit dated. most, if
not all, of the apps in the overlay are available at least ~amd64.
are there any reasons not to run a no-multilib system?
specifically, for performance and compatibility with audio apps?
also, i have never used a VST, so they are not a big issue for me.
thanks in advance.
