But why does that happens?

64 bit systems use larger intgegers for accessing the stack and memory. This enables 64 bit systems to access more than the traditional 4.4 gig
memory limit without resorting to tricks.

This is the whole point of getting a 64 bit system. (well that and
performing large number computations more easily)

But I really, really don't see why it would make the php executable consume 500% more memory! I was expecting an increase of maybe 10-20%. Maybe even 50%. But 500% really just seems over the edge.
