HP-UX 32- or 64-bit Informix
If you are using 4GL for your application and running on the same server (like many of our clients), then to use shared memory connection both must be either 32 bit or 64 bit - and it is not relevant as to whether the OS is 64 bit. MW -----Original Message----- From: owner-informix-l...@iiug.org

R4400SC Indigo2 --- 32-bit?
It can be run in 32-bit mode. You can actually buy an amd64 chip and install the existing i386 Debian distribution and have a perfectly usable system. It can also run in 64-bit mode. That is what the pure64 code does. Pure64 is basically a Debian port done just like a Debian port to any other architecture.

This is a pretty ambigous area.. its all really down to width (in bits) of the bus system compared to the

How to tell 32 from 64 bit:
It is a 32-bit OS with a few 64-bit kludges so you won't notice much difference. So, out of interest, how do _you_ define a 64 bit operating system? For an OE that is touted as "64-bit", there sure is precious little 64-bit going on. SOLARIS is a 32-bit OS with kludges to make a few, very few, operations appear

Need to buy a 32/64 bit HPUX machine
The same applies for addressing mode (the Int*l CPUs can have 16- or 32-bit addressing). Since you refer to RISC in the rest of your article: MIPS R4K CPUs have 64-bit instructions that are disjunct from 32-bit instructions. At the assembly/machine level you can freely mix 32- and 64-bit instructions, your CPU must

only 32 bit int / no 64 bit int in C on AXP???
3) The Intel i860 was called a 64-bit processor because it had a 64-bit bus. In my opinion, this was simply marketing contrary to existing practice. 4) Motorola's 68K (<68020) terminology was sometimes confusing, because: it clearly has a 32-bit ISA, but with different databus sizes: 68000: 16 called 16-bit,

So, that begs the question, why all the fuss about 64-bit and 128-bit processors. Well, first off, you won't see a single general purpose 128-bit processor out there simply because they hurt your performance without offering any advantages over 64-bit chips.

32-bit / 64-bit memory
System 7.x is undisputably 32 bit code. What it lacks is memory protection and preemptive multitasking. That is why it is sometimes branded a "non-32 bit OS" by people who think in segmented space. + PPC 601's and 604's are not truly 64 bit processors, but have a 64 bit path to memory and a 64 bit external bus.

64-bit chips, 32-bit compatibility?
I don't remember having said or suggested that running 32 bit apps under 32-bit-compatibility mode would degrade performance. We're talking here about the performance differences between 32-bit and 64-bit apps, not between running a 32-bit app in native 32-bit vs. 32-bit-compatibility mode.
