Windows installer for 64bit?
Posted: 04 Jul 2013, 11:38
Hi,
I have got a new machine running Windows 7 64-bit. I assume that Elmer compiled for 64-bit can take advantage of the larger memory (12 GB in my case). On nic.funet.fi, I see a windows installer for Rev. 6064 and a win64 zip file for Rev. 5884. I assume that the installer contains the 32-bit version.
Question: is there a 64-bit version of the latest Elmer revision? If so, where do I find it, and how do I install it? Since more and more users will have 64-bit machines, I think it would be a good idea to make a 64-bit installer available - unless the expected performance gain over 32-bit would not be significant...
Thanks,
Matthias
