This is definitely going to be something developers have to think about and use the tools to work out where memory is suffering. I think Apple knows this but has gone there anyway. Still standing by my last mail about how this is a good early step towards 64 bit and will eventually be the right move, i think without 2x the memory on-device and with the different memory issues involved in a larger address space, there's going to be some struggling at the start. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
