What does the 64bit version do?

Post by vinodm »

Does it support more concurrent players?

Could you please advise what exactly it does?

The only difference is that the 64-bit version is not constrained to a 2 GB memory limit like the 32-bit versions are. It could potentially support more concurrent players because each connection creates multiple threads and threads use up a lot of memory. However, the server is only as strong as its weakest link so if your CPU or internet bandwidth max out prior to getting low on memory, then it won't matter.
