What is the difference between the 32 bit and 64 bit versions?

ActiveWin.com: Frequently Asked Questions - Windows XP "...
The 64-bit versions will only work on newer Intel Itanium based hardware. The 32-bit versions will work on all x86 compatible hardware (such a Pentium III, 4, etc).

Can I mix 32 and 64 bit executables in a single parallel MPI job?

LAM FAQ: Heterogenenity and LAM/MPI
Most 64 bit operating systems have the capacity to generate 32 bit executables. By doing so, one can make the cluster "homogenous" (at least in terms of bit size). Once all the executables (including relevant libraries) are 32 bits, one can run MPI jobs as if it were a homogenous cluster. Note that LAM/MPI libraries and executables should also be built as 32 bit libraries/executables.

How can I boot a 32 bit kernel when a 64 bit kernel is installed?

Solaris 2 FAQ
Sun hardware released after Solaris 8 no longer supports 32 bit booting; you can only run 64 bit kernels on those. This applies to all Ultra-III systems as well as the Sun Blade 100 and other UltraSPARC-IIe systems. SPARC: In order to boot a 32 bit kernel on other 64-bit capable systems, type "boot kernel/unix" at the "ok" prompt. x86: In order to boot a 32 bit kernel on other 64-bit capable systems, type "b kernel/unix" at the "(b)oot or ..." prompt.

How do I tell if I have the 32 or 64 bit version of Windows XP?

XP FAQ
XP Home does not come in a 64 bit version. The 64 bit version of XP requires special hardware and is now readily available. The software that makes use of the 64 bit version is also specialized for use on the 64 bit architecture. For professional system information, diagnostics and benchmarking download the free utility. I would suggest downloading the enterprise version. AIDA32 Click on the links below for more information on the 64 bit version of XP.

What 64 bit versions of Windows are compatible with TracePlus??

FAQ
TracePlus/Ethernet is compatible with Windows XP x64, Windows 2003 Server x64, and 64 bit versions of Windows Vista. It makes use of WOW64 (32 bit) using 64 bit drivers. The ability of TracePlus to intercept applications launched from the Start menu or the Desktop will not be available on 64 bit Windows platforms. The implementation of his feature uses functionality available in previous versions of Windows that was removed by Microsoft for security reasons.

edit] I'm running Linux, but don't know whether it is 32 or 64 bit. How can I find out?

FAQ - Armagetron Advanced Wiki
If the output starts with x86_64, you have a 64 bit system. If it starts with i386, i486, i586 or i686 or possibly just x86 or x86_32, you have a 32 bit system. For anything else, we don't provide binary packages, you have to build from source. If the output is blank, the method failed. Then, see whether you have got the directory /usr/lib64 on your system. If yes, you have a 64 bit system, if no, it's 32 bit.

So why would anybody want to go to 64 bit?

SoildWorks, Mastercam, Dimension 3D Printing, CAD, PDM, COSM...
Memory… The clear advantage of 64 bit over 32 bit is that 64 bit allows virtually unlimited memory usage. Where as 32 bit has a 4 GIG upper limit… I would recommend only those customers who are creating HUGE assemblies and are specifically running out of memory in XP. It is not that difficult to use up more than 2-4 GIG in a large assembly. But only a small number of our user base fits into this category. Most of our customer do not come anywhere near the limits of 4 GIG memory.

Is Mudbox 64 bit compatible?

Mudbox - Frequently Asked Questions about Mudbox
Though some Mudbox artists use Mudbox on XP 64, Mudbox 1.0 is not certified for 64 bit operating systems. We recommend testing Mudbox on your computer to confrim acceptable performance before purchasing. Mudbox 2.0, however, is designed to operate on and take advantage of 64 bit operating systems. Currently Mudbox is available only for the Windows operating system. That said, Mudbox was designed for cross-platform compatibility from the start.

How are 64 bit values handled?

Tcl/Java Project
Jacl does not support 64 bit values in Tcl scripts. Tcl 8.4 does support 64 bit values in regular Tcl commands in some configurations. Both Jacl and Tcl Blend support passing 64 bit values to Java methods that expect a long or java.lang.Long type. If a 64 bit value is returned by a Java method, it will be treated as a string. No, Tcl Blend requires a native threads JVM.

bit vs 32 bit, is it faster?

SoildWorks, Mastercam, Dimension 3D Printing, CAD, PDM, COSM...
It shows doing the exact same thing on the same hardware, 64 is actually a little bit slower… Intel has also confirmed that 64 bit code may be slightly slower. I don’t know I am not a programmer. However as you can read from the above article if you read all the techno speak, 64 bit version actually requires the cpu to do more work…
