- <h2>64-bit
- Support</h2>

- <p style="margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt; " class="WordNormalWeb">The bulk of software today is
- written for a 32-bit processor. It can meet the requirements of almost any end
- user. However that is not the case when dealing with servers processing large
- amounts of data with complex calculations of very large numbers. That is where
- 64-bit architecture comes into play. </p>
-
- <p style="margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt; " class="WordNormalWeb"> </p>
-
- <p style="margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt; " class="WordNormalWeb">It can boast improved scalability
- for business applications that enables to support more customer databases and
- more simultaneous users on each server. Besides a 64-bit kernel can access more
- system resources, such as memory allocation per user. A 64-bit processor can
- handle over 4 billion times more memory addresses than a 32-bit processor. With
- these resources, even a very large database can be cached in memory. </p>
-
- <p style="margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt; " class="WordNormalWeb"> </p>
-
- <p style="margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt; " class="WordNormalWeb">Although many business applications
- run without problems on 32-bit systems, others have grown so complex that they
- use up the 4 GB memory limitation of a 32-bit address space. With this large
- amount of data, fewer memory resources are available to meet memory needs. On a
- 64-bit server, most queries are able to perform in the buffers available to the
- database.</p>
-
- <p style="margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt; " class="WordNormalWeb"> </p>
-
- <p style="margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt; " class="WordNormalWeb">Some 32-bit applications make the
- transition to the 64-bit environment seamlessly others do not. For instance,
- system-level utilities and programs that provide direct hardware access are
- likely to fail. Our program offers a full-fledged support of the 64-bit
- architecture providing fault-tolerant work for such system dependent modules as
