The main purpose of the 64bit VM is to allow an image to have a size greater than 2GB
There is nothing wrong with depending on 32bit libraries With a 32bit VM you still access mora than 2GB of memory using multiple images and vm instances and IPC On Thu, 12 Jan 2017 at 16:01, Nicolas Anquetil <nicolas.anque...@inria.fr> wrote: > > > > > > > > > > > thanks for both replies. > > > - I was under the impression that the 64bit VM was precisely > > intended to remove dependencies on 32bits libraries ... ? > > > > > - and yes, you are right, I should have called on the plugin, not > > the vm > > > > > > thanks again > > > > > > > nicolas > > > > > > > > > > On 12/01/2017 14:43, Hilaire wrote: > > > > > > > If you are using Pharo on a Linux 64 bits system you need the Linux 32 > > bits librararies.
