Lance,

Allocating more than 2GB to the JVM requires 64-bit.

Hi,

My only experience is using Hadoop and HBase shell on OSX Tiger.

It seems that if you are going to store large amounts of data
w/HBase allocating more than 2GB to the JVM would be helpful.

Not sure about about your HDFS compatibility questions.

So are we assuming that all the HDFS nodes are on 64bit hosts?

Any idea if using the Hadoop Java API on 32bit clients would work to read / write files into a 64 bit HDFS setup over the network (HTTP)?

Thanks,

Lance
