What about 64bit systems?

I've been running the current version on 64-bit Centos 4 for a couple of months now without any problems. The apache build is the most troublesome--there's a thread somewhere about some tweaks.

I believe that there's also a thread somewhere saying that this will be fully supported in the near future.

Are you using mysql 64bit? apache 64bit?
And what where the problems?

Is there a big change upgrading 32bit to 64bit? (Load, CPU Usage, RAM)
 
Yeah, using Centos MySQL 4.1 64-bit and apache from customapache (which will compile 64-bit unless you try really hard not to).

Problems are mostly with compiling, but I noticed that the customapache build script does recognize 64-bit operating systems now and makes some changes.

The performance improvement is minimal for the most part. Some operations (like gzip) are noticeably faster, but overall the performance difference is very difficult to detect.
