Re: [gobo-eiffel-develop] 32 bit platform

[Bernd S. <ber...@in...>]

Hi Howard,

I personally know only few people using Eiffel on a non-x86 32bit  
platform. Origo now uses 64bit for it production servers, but development  
happens most of the time still on 32bit Windows, Mac or Linux.

There are very few advantages of using 64bit. The biggest advantage is on  
setups with more than 4GB of RAM, which is still non-standard.

Regards,
Bernd
