Also due to the amount of data that can be transferred at once across the data paths to the CPU: 64-bit pointers simply take up more bandwidth on those paths. A 32-bit process, using 32-bit pointers, will enjoy a 2x speedup for those types of data. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk1+g+MACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PB8DwCgqTO/v8DuSS4M8qKbAiGAMJch bVoAoIdFUL3MM0TqBOFxWZfMp/+9s8At =2ZPm -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
