It does in single operation, but it taks twices clock pulse than 32bit! You cannot perform binary adder operation in parallel. Speed of operation is measured with the number of clock pulse. 32bit adder may require something like 36 clock pulses or close numbers. 64bit require about 70 clock pulses. Remember that cpu logic gates work in sync with clocks. Limited number of operations can be performed in a second. The number will change depending on your cpu clock pulse, which is limited to about 3.5GHz these days. That's why we want more Hz to get speed. That's the thing that give us the speed! -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Tomcat-with-8-GB-memory-tf4149367.html#a11838049 Sent from the Tomcat - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
