64-bit PHP


Recommended Posts

I am looking into upgrading my current Fedora 9 to the 64-bit version and was wondering becides the amount of memory it supports, is there any other advantages?

 

For example, will me running 64-bit allow php to calculate and use larger integers?  I wrote an application about a month ago and couldn't finish it, well, finish it the easy way, becuase the resulting numbers were too large over the 32-bit limit.  Will whiching to 64-bit help this in any?

 

I don't use over 4GB so I don't really care about the memory advantage.  If there is no other advantage that I can benefit from, then I will not upgrade the system.

 

Let me know if anyone of you have any experience with this, thanks.
