Hello,
As you may be aware, BitFolk currently doesn't support 64-bit
guests. The reasons for this are:
- 64-bit is alleged to be a little slower and use more memory
per-process compared to 32-bit.
- 99.04% of BitFolk customers have less than 2GiB addressable RAM.
- Supporting only 32-bit or only 64-bit is a bit simpler.
We do, however occasionally lose custom due to not supporting 64-bit
guests.
A future memory upgrade (not planned as to when) will obviously push
more people into the space where >2G RAM per process would be
beneficial, so I will consider switching to only 64-bit by that
time. Will anyone be terribly upset to leave 32-bit behind?
To clarify I am saying that after that point new installs would have
to be 64-bit. Existing 32-bit installs would be unaffected.
Also if you have a requirement for 64-bit it would be appreciated if
you could vote for:

Andy
