Hi johnfound
I'm learning AsmBB source and ASM. So I have got some basic/stupid questions and hope you don't mind to answer them
1. What is the pros vs cons of 32bit ASM (which AsmBB was built on) vs 64bit ASM?
a) With 32bit ASM, AsmBB can't use more than 3 (or maximum 4) GB RAM memory?
b) 1 engine process share the same memory space with the main engine? => may be 1 engine process never use up to 3 GB memory but when under workload (let's say before the DDOS patch), total engines memory usage will be limit to 3 GB ?
c) AsmBB use sqlite 32bit, does it limit the database file size of sqilite? or only limit the data size of 1 post content, total count of post?
d) Is 64bit AsmBB run faster than 32bit?
2. Can we mass convert to 64bit by some tools? may be 70% work then 30% re-correct by hand?
3. A > 4GB VPS doesn't have any benefit for AsmBB ?
4. A multi core VPS have any benefit?
Thank you!
