Re: Debian 32-bit or 64-bit



Thanks for the quick response.

I'm planning to use the system for programming purposes. Like C++, java, python, Qt, eclipse, Android studio, ssh, ftp etc. I will be using icedove, iceweasel all the time.

Will 64-bit programs slows down the system, as it doubles the memory allocation than 32-bit programs ?

I always use 64bit version even on old computers. I never had problems with that, so in my opinion you can use 64bit without worries.

Sorry for Outlook mail, but it’s only option for now ;)
