I am trying to decide if I should put the time into setting up a 32-bit environment or and stay with 64-bit or if I should just rebuild my system at 32-bit. I am running with 2GB which should be fine for 32-bit. I don't have any specific needs for 64-bit. Would I notice any big slow down from doing everything 32-bit on amd64? I am wondering if I should just go rebuild 32-bit and retry 64-bit in 6-12 months. Any feedback would be welcome, Jim -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list
