If 32-bit ints didn't make your structures consume far, far too much memory in the early '90s, when consumer-grade computers came with 4-8MiB of RAM and 256MiB

If 32-bit ints didn't make your structures consume far, far too much memory in the early '90s, when consumer-grade computers came with 4-8MiB of RAM and 256MiB disks, then I don't see how 64-bit ints could have done so in the mid-'00s when they came with 1GiB of RAM and 256GiB disks.
