This then gives rise to the question: what about the embedded server. Does that have to be available for x86? The question is, do those use case even update/upgrade their Firebird installs? I'm continuing to be amazed by people steadfastly continuing to use - for example - Firebird 1.5, 12 years after its last release (and even then, they are sometimes not even using the last 1.5 release). That said, continuing to provide a 32 bit client library is probably warranted, if only to prevent issues with client applications and tools (for example, FlameRobin 64-bit was broken, not sure if it still is, while 32-bit worked OK). For Embedded, I think that people still needing 32-bit and Embedded, are likely not using the latest and greatest version of Firebird.

Many existig applications are 32bit and cannot be "migrated" to 64 bit in the near futureOn the other hand, these applications can still use older fbclient.dll. --Mgr. Jiří Činčurahttps://www.tabsoverspaces.com/Firebird-Devel mailing list, web interface at https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/firebird-devel Are there usage metrics for 32-bit versions? Here in Brazil about 30% of my company's customers still use 32-bit OS, while some of these machines can support 64-bit OS there are other issues that block the update, such as legacy 16-bit applications, older hardware with drivers available only for 32-bit etc ... Due to the financial crisis caused by the pandemic, we cannot discard or force our customers to upgrade, so we will probably be stuck with Firebird 3.x. Anyway, although I really hate supporting old hardware and systems, if there are no technical blocks I think 32bit versions should be supported by at least one more major version (up to 4.1 maybe 5.0) as deprecated.

I was thinking more on the lines of the early Raspberries. And there are many more similar products such as Arduino. These 32-bit processor designs can have h/w costs that are almost in pennies, not dollars. That market is only going to get bigger. But as I said, we don't really have much of a user base there. At least at the moment. tl;dr - 32-bit x86 is more or less dead but 32-bit processors will be around for some time to come.

Post-4 version (still not sure 4.1, 5.0 - but it does not matter now) has absolutely no reasons to support 32-bit HW (at least x86, but sooner of all no armv7a too). I'm unsure what to do with FB4.

What 32-bit ARM you have in mind? I wouldn't put my bet on ARMv6, ARMv5, etc. ;) Not sure about the Cortex either. Also, you're right. I was more about x86 vs AMD64, but I used to 32-bit as a simplification. -- Mgr.

Why does Brian want Microsoft to stop shipping an Operating System that is likely only chosen by mistake? My problem is this: Backblaze, like any good technology vendor, wants to be easy to use and friendly. In this case, that means we need to quietly, invisibly, continue to support BOTH the 32-bit and the 64-bit versions of every Microsoft OS they release. And we’ll probably need to do this for at least 5 years AFTER Microsoft officially retires the 32-bit only version of their operating system."
