Thanks Ed W Robert Cummings wrote:64 bit integers are twice as big as 32 bit integers.Hi all,I'm not an expert and have no real experience with programming in a 64-bit environment.That said, I think a system will allocate not only space for 64-bit values (in simple theory twice as much as 32-bit). 64-bit is simple a factor, so calculations increase with this factor.I think the memory goes into a square ratio (NxN) instead of just saying double (Nx2). Again, I'm not a wizzkid with enough math experience. This is just my simple and humble reasoning.--
RSS is staying approximately constant, ie the memory in use has not changed much
VSZ, ie virtual memory has increased by more than 2x2=4. If someone has some hard experience of both platforms then please add some experience to this - however, I'm looking for some hard debugging knowhow on this, not just some handwaving estimates please
