Hi All,

I have a general question.

We have access to some new AMD64 based Dell Servers with 2 Core Duo Xeons. We are currently using i386 Dell Servers with a core duo processor. I recall from my MS Windows days that when there was the shift from 16-bit to 32-bit processors it did take a while for applications to support 32 bit. Sometimes 16-bit applications actually ran slower on the 32-bit hardware. I know this is a loaded question:

- Will the AMD64 based FreeBSD 6.2 distribution with applications such as Postgresql, Apache, Python, Tomcat and SBCL be able to take advantage of the 64-bit quad processor?

Thanks,
Arend
