Hi everyone!

Today I was asked if it would be able to install Oracle XE on a 64 bits
system. I said that Oracle does not provide a 64 bits packages but I found a
couple of hacks to actually install it on a 64 bits platform.
What I was wondering is if there is any performance enhancement doing this
or this would be like having Oracle XE on a 32 bits system? Even though
still a good thing because other software would benefit from the 64 bits
system. ;o)

PS. Does any one know if oracle intend to release a version of Oracle XE for
64 bits system?

Thanks!
Guilherme Longo
