What 32-bit ARM you have in mind? I wouldn't put my bet on ARMv6, ARMv5, etc.

I agree. My original motivation to ask was to estimate whether I should keep
providing 32bit builds of FbNetExternalEngine. Not that it is a huge amount of

Hello,
I have to use it on Android, because there is no binary 64b version and
I am not able to build it by myself...
On Windows, I have one installation where customer has Windows 7 Pro
32bit, this will probably be upgraded to Windows 10 64bit this year.

researching, not judging)?
