This is the default on windows x64.
Well, some poking aronud by the sysadmins and they found teh perl
was compiled with
MYMALLOC PERL_MALLOC_WRAP USE_64_BIT_ALL USE_64_BIT_INT USE_FAST_STDIO
USE_LARGE_FILES USE_PERLIO
So it was using 64 bit variables for INT and maybe some other uneeded
things.
So that might be a big part of it.

Thanks,

I should add - if anyone can answer this question - would it be a good idea
to do
so even if possible?
Thanks,

32bit: SIZE=45M RES=32M

Do these look reasonable? Should I worry?
Good question. While I haven't made the jump to 64bit for my web
machines there are lots of memory related things that double in size
when you do
