Is it possible to provide both a 32 and 64 bit version of the Enigma application, similar to Primegrid and Rosetta@home? This would provide some speed-up across all 64-bit hosts on this project, not only the ones with the optimized app installed. It seems that this would be an easier solution than creating a GPU application, as some others have suggested.

Great idea. I have seen, that x64 don´t run here on my Linux PC... :(

aarch64 devices will start appearing soon also.

Sure, I can add 64 bit apps, but I doubt there will be any performance gain.

Is the 5.32 windows/linux app quiker then the lower number "v5.22 Experimental optimized app" ?


If this is so, can the 5.32 be an optimized and 64-bit, plz compile this as well.
(i have no experience in compiling).

Phoronix have tests somewhere that claim 64-bit apps run better on 64-bit machines than 32-bit apps. I'm sure Google will enlighten anyone who's interested.

Of course, it depends on the app.
