Re: 64bit testing


 

Thanks for speaking for me!

There is a lot of data on this you can Google it I don¡¯t care much to share after that bit of telling you all what I experience. But to keep it short my current pi3 is not decoding fast enough for my likes and there is a lot of good evidence to show the improvement but don¡¯t take my word for it 32bit works fine!?

But honestly I don¡¯t care to write the detailed email response anymore I was going to GL 73?

I will be working with some of the app developers to fix compile on stuff feel free to contact me direct if you have questions.?

For Ham Radio type applications, I don't think he will see much of an improvement in terms of lower CPU utilization across the cores.? He *will* see increased memory and storage space utilization as everything is bigger in 64bit land.? There are many reasonable and real world reasons why Raspberry Pi OS is still on 32bit... there just isn't much benefit for 64bit at this level of hardware.

And... have you observed performance improvement?

I downloaded the latest May2021 raspberry64bOS (still in beta) and ran the script things seem to work for the most part

?

FL-suite needed a manual install of

> libfltk1.3-dev Libjpeg-dev libxcursor-dev libfontconfig1-dev libxinerama-dev libxft-dev libsamplerate-dev libsndfile1-dev libportaudio19-dev?

to run the automated compile scripts, after added things seem ok!


qsstv has a hamlib-dev problem and JS8 package has issues it appears.

anyway I went down the path for better performance with FT8
