Title: 64 bit Version
Post by: fideliovienna on October 11, 2009, 12:36:50 am

Hi,

would be nice to get a 64 bit Version.
Alt.Binz is not a RAM-Eater, but though it would be nice, because you could use more RAM-Cache for big files and if running in background it would leave more RAM for other programs, espacially for games with are not 64 bit compatible.

When would you ever need a > 4GB cache in Alt.Binz?

As i already wrote, also a Cache like 1000 MB uses the 32 bit-Adresses of RAM, like all other 32 bit-Application and in my case Alt.Binz is always running in Backgroud while gaming or doing RAW conversion of photos.
If u use a 64 bit-Version of Windows every 32 bit-Application isn´t running native and therefore not ideal.

It was just a question, it can´t be done by now, no prob, Alt.Binz stays the best newsreader available  :)
