>From my point of view, 64 bit on server side is easy to handle but the
client side can have different needs and limitations.
For example, we are using XenServer from Citrix, the Dom0 is taken from a
CentOS 5 distro and it is 32bit. I cannot change that, because is a Citrix
design choice and there might be lots of these situations around.
Sorry but I can't code any patches..
Anyway, I will share what our experience will be with 32bit client.

Cheers
Stefano
