For this discussion (AMD Opteron), I'd assume a 64 bit program is one that is compiled to run in the Opterons native 64 bit mode (with the extra registers). You don't need to make extensive use of 64 bit datastructures to run faster on the Opteron in this mode, but obviously it opens up a few interesting possibilities. -- GCP
