Hi,

`size_t` is optimal for every architecture that does not use segmented memory.

The only platform that I know which used segmented memory was 80286, which was
not produced since the mid 90th. According to Wikipedia the last architecture
that used segmented memory died out in 1997.

So, +1 for size_t from me, too.

Cheer
René
