(Sorry for the top post... can't find the setting on my phone...) For me, the memory increase is really not that noticeable. As in, it really has no functional impact on what I need it to run in any regard. I'm not doing embedded programming on these, I'm running things like openldap and named. In some cases, I'd wager that the performance increase of x64 is worth the memory tradeoff, but I don't have any hard data to prove it.
If nothing else, it means that I only need to build one architecture of RPMs instead of two. Everything else of mine runs x64, so it is absolutely worth it for me. --Kyle Aragon Gouveia <[email protected]> wrote: | By Kyle Brantley <[email protected]> | [ 2011-10-23 20:50 +0200 ] > I somewhat absent-mindedly went to install CentOS on my 6501-70, and did > so by loading the 64-bit kernel + initrd. It worked, no problem... Do you (or anyone) think there are any advantages to running 64 bit on a device like this? Seems like a waste of memory to me... _____________________________________________ Soekris-tech mailing list [email protected] http://lists.soekris.com/mailman/listinfo/soekris-tech
