hi, all
after a long time development, i need to deploy a production system.
i want to install latest Asterisk 1.6.2.9 on Centos 5.4 . one thing confused me.
my computer hardware support 64 bit OS.
my question is : should i use Centos 5.4 64bit or Centos 5.4 32bit?
which is better for my asterisk ? consider compatibilityand stability.
this is a new machine , only used for asterisk, no other apps.
Thank you in advance!

Neither of these will really give you any benefit but Asterisk and all the extras I have seen all work fine on 64bit so there is no real reason not to go for it.

I think it mostly the better register set which results in that. Steve
