Stripping parts out of the > 64 bit stack and just running them 32bit may be worth the effort Quoting your last mail: " Everything running on the Linux boxes is 64 bit, and everything is built from the same code base, so I will continue to use a single 64bit stack ..". So let stop this confusing discussion, points have been made, we have ran extensive tests with all possible apps and backends, PHP is actually slower and not stable enough and in some extend less safe when built as 64bit. And I refer only to PHP and its libraires here, not external tools like databases.
