I can't speak for all versions, but the windows 8.0 that came with my laptop had most win32 apps running extetemely slowly and some wouldn't run at all or locked the entire computer. This is much better now (after win8.1 and probably other updates), but 64bit apps /feel/ more responsive still. But I will download the win32 calibre and see if it performs any differently than the win64 version<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On July 21, 2014 3:49:00 PM EDT, Gary Holmlund <gary.holmlund@gmail.com> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">

At work, I develop a large enterprise application that uses c++ and
Qt on 32/64 bit on Windows and linux. We have done various
performance comparisons in the past. Generally the 64 bit Windows
program is about 20% larger than the 32 bit version of the same
program. Other than that, they perform about the same. The only
difference is that the 32 bit program can't have a process size
greater than approximately 3GB. This would not be an issue for
BibleTime. We have never seen that Windows 8.0 is any exception to
this. So, if anything the 32bit uses a little less disk/ram due to
the smaller program size. <br />
<br />
Also, my wife regularly uses BibleTime on her Windows 8.0 computer.
It seems to run just fine there. <br />

seem (to me at least I haven't done any actual comparisons of the

their 64bit counterparts. Pre Win8.1 some 32bit apps would barely
if at all run due to resource usage.<br />

Will a 64-bit version of BibleTime also be available? This
question<br />
has been raised on the [BibleTime-translations] mailing list.<br />
