Abstract: Many users need 64-bit architectures: 32-bit systems cannot support the largest applications, and 64-bit systems perform better for some applications. However, performance on some other applications can suffer from the use of large pointers; large pointers can also constrain feasible problem size. Such applications are best served by a 64-bit machine that supports the use of both 32-bit and 64-bit pointer variables. This paper analyzes several programs and programming techniques to understand... (Update)
