Jose,
Debian amd64 has a processing speed advantage in being
able to use more registers, reducing the amount of data
that has to be shuffled between registers and cache during
execution. There are other architectural advantages, too.
Obviously, the OS takes pretty full advantage of this

apt-get upgrade-dist has always been deprecated for amd64,

Now that etch is mainstream, is upgrade-dist from etch to

Any text editor will have hotkey search on
