Remember that virtual address space is limited on 32-bit

Sorry, but someone who tries to run highly concurrent server
software with thousands of fibers on 32-bit platform is quite
unwise and there is no point in taking such use case into
account. 32-bit has its own niche with different kinds of
concerns.
Agreed. I don't know why golang guys bother about it.
