I usually don't think twice about this sort of thing, I always reach for x64 installers since all my systems here are 64bit. The only exception maybe is something like Python or something odd that is finicky...
But, as far as LilyPond goes, is there any real-world benefit to using the 64bit install (on a 64bit OS) vs. the 32bit install (on 64bit OS)? Does RAM ever really being to be an issue with LilyPond? I've never seen resource spikes at all so maybe I'm just the minority here, but could someone tell me what the differences are between these installers?
