What does 32 bit application mean?
What is the difference between a 32-bit and 64-bit application from a developer point of view? The difference is as little or as great as the vendors of the OS, compiler, and libraries choose to make it. Does 64-bit library means a library written for 64-bit processor or it would also work on 32-bit processor?

Das ist etwas uebertrieben. jint und jfloat haben auch in 64-bit VMs wirklich nur 32-bit und werden auch mit 32-bit Operationen bearbeitet. Ja, aberdas ist alles noch *vor* der CPU. Ich rede von der Assembler- Ebene, nicht vom VM-Assembler, sondern vom Assembler der CPU selbst,also das, was HotSpot ausspuckt.

First we have two loaders both residing in /lib, a 32 bit and a 64 bit loader. On Linux for zSeries this are /lib/ld.so.1 for 32 bit architectures and /lib/ld64.so.1 for the 64 bit architectures.

performance of runing 32/64 bit program in 64 bit kernel.
A 32 bit processor can add two 32-bit integers in one machine instruction and with 32-bit addresses it can access 4 GByte of memory. A 64 bit processor can add two 64-bit integers in one machine instruction and with 64-bit addresses it can access 4G*4G of memory. The machine instruction set is different,

32 e 64 bit
A bit blurred, of course. :-) 1) 32-bit/64-bit processor Basically, the 'bitness' of a processor is its 'natural' size of operands. Often this is the size of the registers and the operating unit (ALU) of the processor. Of course this is muddled by processors like the Pentium 4, which has 32-, 64-, and 128-bit

Some
processors use 16 bit addresses, some use 32 bit addresses, some use 64 bits, some use other weird numbers like 20. Operating system designers are usually restricted by the architecture that they want to support, and thus must use pointers of a certain size. It kinda sorta used to go by the size of the CPU's
