Well, I still use K7 on my amd64 system for the 32 bit codecs. Or is there 64 bits available now? Maybe I'm wrong but I've seen processes in a amd64-system using much more memory than on a k7 system. Or is that just a coincidence? So, is there no problem using 686-package instead of k7? Otherwise I'll switch right away. :-)
