It would seem that 64 bit is just better, but I have this Net top box with 2 Gigs of ram, and I am wondering if anyone can justify running one over another. I am just running this as a server and no graphical interface. I have Xen running in paravirtualized mode on Debian.
Is there more overhead with 64 bit addressing? I take it the alu is operating at 64 bit on everything in 64 bit mode? That would seem like it could do operations with twice the width.
