There are currently about 275,000 IP address checking in with x86_64
systems every day. and 25,000 x86_32. So it's about 11:1.

However, that includes systems going back to FC6; if we looked at just
recent releases it'd be even more tilted. (I don't have a quick way to
break that out at my fingertips, but could ask for it if it's really
helpful.)

Thanks for the data. 25k is still a pretty healthy number. :) I realize that there are a lot of unknowns in the data, so it is difficult to draw any hard conclusions, but 25k is still much larger than 0. Splitting into i686 into i586 and i686 would give more insight into who still needs non-SSE2... Probably hurts my argument, though. :)
