Yep, that’s my conclusion as well. I was hoping for some 64 bit speed up, but nope. If software folks don’t get this squared away, they could queer the market for 64 bit.
I was trying to explore the security implications of VMs used as banking, stocks and other online stuff that is secure. I just started oput with a couple of GB, so I will order up 4 more.
That’s what testing is for.
You using Windows 7 beta?
64-bit was never about more speed. It's a new architecture to deal with greater amounts of memory.

With applications getting larger all the time eventually 64-bit will be the default because accessing more than 4GB of RAM on 32-bit is just too costly. (Processorily speaking)
