Re: A rookie's query: Want to about Debian and the related
Is it a 32-bit or 64-bit CPU? How old is it? Debian does compile for
32-bit architecture, for very old machines, so the 32-bit architecture
might not be optimized to "modern" 32-bit CPUs. Some other distros
ignore old hardware and compile for more recent 32-bit CPUs, so that the
software won't work on very old hardware. For 64-bit architecture the
difference between distros isn't that large. If hardware optimization
does matter, depends to the task. AFAIK, regarding to the used math, the
audio quality could differ.
