Hello, Will switchning to 64bit distribution (intel EM64T) provide any performance gain to the networking code: routing (lots of rules and big routing tables), scheduling (htb) and iptables? Thank you. -- Anton Glinkov network administrator

Network traffic is processed in kernelspace, so system libraries (32-bit or 64-bit) won''t be relevant. I''m curious myself about 64-bit vs 32-bit network performance comparison. cheers, Marek Kierdelewicz KoBa ISP
