I'm running 32-bit Firefox in Windows Server 2008 x64 and I have no issues with this what so ever. It's stable, working and you shouldn't really need more than 4GB of memory for a web-browser anyway.
Compared to the minefield of bugs that is Minefield (64-bit FF builds), coupled with lousy plug-in support, the 32-bit version is a by far superior option.
I'm not saying you have to run Chrome, as I'm kinda fed up with the hype, but why would you make lack of 64-bit support a show-stopper for something like a web-browser? For a DB-server needing massive amounts of RAM I could see the point, but for a web-browser?
- deutronium 17y agoI'd agree with you that yes there isn't a great advantage of a 64 bit web browser. But 64 bit FF + the 64 bit Flash plugin seems pretty stable for me at the moment, maybe theres a slight advantage if you play HD video through the webbrowser.
- ori_b 17y agoIMO, a bigger advantage is that you don't have to install 2 copies of all the libraries.
