Hi, I am porting my chess program to 64 bit on an AMD64 Athlon processor. I have noticed that, with gcc, sizeof(int)=4. I would have expected sizeof(int)=8. On 32-bit platforms, 32-bit variables are faster than 16-bit variables. I wonder if 64-bit variables are faster than 32-bit variables on 64-bit machines. I have made a few experiments and did not notice much difference. Rémi
