Re: [PD-dev] double precision pd?

Hello, BTW, did anyone made a benchmark : "pd double" will of course be lot's slower on 32 bit architecture, but what about 64 bit architecture? Will "pd double" perform as fast as "pd float" on modern computer? or do we need to have both version installed on the same computer? (some patch need

Funnily, my personal feeling is the opposite :-) I feel that Pd64 clearly describes Pd working with 64 bit data. I myself don't have any trouble with whatever name we use as I know perfectly well the situation. My trouble with Pd64 is that it will get listed next to Pd in almost any package
