Hello,

Will switchning to 64bit distribution (intel EM64T) provide any
performance gain to the networking code: routing (lots of rules and big
routing tables), scheduling (htb) and iptables?

Thank you.

You can have 64bit kernel on 32bit distro. Network traffic is
processed in kernelspace, so system libraries (32-bit or 64-bit)
won't be relevant.

I'm curious myself about 64-bit vs 32-bit network performance
comparison.

cheers,
