Yes.

What platform are you interested in?

64 is a bigger number than 32. Therefor the human mind tends to like it better. Man, I can't wait for the 512-bit OS'es. The Law Of Bigger Numbers (LOB-N) applies everywhere you go. This is just one LOB. There are other LOBs. LOB-D (Law Of Bigger Dudes), LOB-S (Law Of Bigger Salary), LOB-C (Law Of Bigger Car), LOB-F (Law Of Bigger Fish), and many more.

Most systems will work splendidly (sp?) on the 32-bit limit. And 64-bit stuff is always slower than 32-bit stuff. They have to move more stuff around. Thanks to Anjo for (again and again) pointing out the obvious and startling facts to me.

Anjo - you promised me you'd make a 32/64-bit presentation one day. Is that gonna be at the Database Forum in October or what? If not, you're fired, of course.
