[Asterisk-Users] Performance differences 64-bit vs 32-bit

[Morgan Gilroy]

As far as I know there will be no difference.
32bit runs natively on AMD64 chips.

The only advantage of 64bit is the extra address space and huge integers
:)

But I could be wrong, iv not done any benchmarking myself just what i
have read on the net.
