Status: Unverified
GOAL:
Performance of the 32-bit product versus our 64-bit product
GOAL:
Running a 32 bit product within your 64 bit environment
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 9.1x
FIX:
Running a 32 bit application within a 64 bit environment has an OS overhead for which the OS vendor might have figures. This could be the explanation of your performance problem on a 64bit OS versus a 32 bit OS.
Progress is not running any certification of its 32 bit product within the 64 bit environment when there is a 64 bit version for a platform.
The changes made for the Progress 64 bit product versus the 32 bit one are within the code itself, there is no specific startup parameter. The values of the startup parameters should be reviewed as it might be possible to upper the value for some startup parameters like -spin or -B when being within a "all 64 bit" environment.
