RE: 32 or 64?

Fiction. I migrated a 32 bit database to 64 and did not change anything else. DB definitely runs better. As in WEB pages returning in < 10 second vs. > 40 seconds before the migration.

well some OS you're forced to at some level, but my understanding is UNLESS you build the database with 64 bit binaies, just chaging the word size supposedly doesn't let you gain any of the 64 bit performance enhancements, fact or fiction, someone willing to elaborate?
