All I'm trying is to point out how a 32-bit browser on a 64-bit system is a good idea. My comparison of windows and linux is technically correct here.
I've also used 32-bit and 64-bit both linux and windows, including 32-bit vista (yuck), and also tried 32-bit firefox on the 64-bit ubuntu. The final conclusion is simply that 32-bit firefox always works better and more stable (more compatible with plugins and java), and also consumes less memory than the 64-bit. I'm quite a bit diappointed with the 64-bit ff, not only it eats enormous amounts of memory, but java support is so broken that I cannot access my bank's e-banking applet on this computer at all, and it's quite a problem for me. I must say, if there isn't a 32-bit ff in the next ubuntu version, I guess I'll abandon the 64-bit distro altogether and install 32-bit ubuntu. -- 32-bit firefox should be included in AMD64 (x86-64) distribution https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/355476 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
