ASSP will work perfectly on all 64 bit nix installations with 64 bit perl, 
 if all modules are build with the same compiler and against the same CLib 
header files like Perl was compiled. The same is true for 32 bit 
installations.

I don't recommend to run assp on 64 bit windows OS using a 64 bit perl, 
because this leads most times in a mixup of 64 bit modules and 32 bit 
modules in the same perl installation.
Running a 32 bit perl on a 64 bit Windows is fine - as long as all modules 
are installed via PPM. If a module is installed via CPAN, you have to make 
sure, that 64 bit compiling is switched off (a 32 bit Perl with mingw will 
take care of this).

>I would love to know if ASSP doesn't work with 64-bit perl.

ASSP is 100% source code which is interpreted by Perl. So - if your Perl 
is perfect - also will be assp

>This isn't stated anywhere in any of the documentation

This is basic IT knowledge !

How ever - IMHO it is useless to use a 64 bit perl - except very large 
installations. 

- most code operations in assp are done with 32 or less bits 
- 64 bit (Perl) pointers requires 2 times the memory than 32 bit pointers 
- and assp uses some thousends of them, this wastes system resources

- 32 bit limits the memory for the perl process to 4GB, which could be too 
less in some very rare cases.

I would love to know if ASSP doesn't work with 64-bit perl.  This would 
be the answer to the three months of headaches so far with V2! This 
isn't stated anywhere in any of the documentation I could find. Can any 
of the developers please confirm or deny that perl 5.16 64bit is 
supported for ASSP?
