64-bit Toys for Athlon-64? 82
gbulmash asks: "I'm looking to see just how much performance I can squeeze out of a new Athlon-64 system. This isn't for benchmarking, but more like you got a new car and you're looking for a long, straight road where you can push the needles into the red before letting off the gas (and then maybe a twisty mountain road to test cornering). Can the all-knowing Slashdot readers recommend some AMD-64 enabled/optimized distros and packages that will let us new proud papas of AMD-64 systems fully open up the throttle on these bad girls and see what they're made of?"
Uhhhh.....yeah (Score:1, Funny)
I'm a bit confused why you'd want to assign a string to a double in the first place, but I guess in C everything is a number at the end of the day so it's still valid.
