So I just installed the new Raspberry Pi OS x64 on my Raspberry Pi 3B+ and I'm surprised how good it's working already and how fast it is on my Pi 3B+, how cool is that? Okay you do have to install Node-RED manually but you can use the same installation bash script that you'd use when you install it…

And how much faster is it would you say?

That is interesting, I would not have expected it to make any significant difference. Are you sure you are not using a faster SD card than you did previously?

I find speed statements interesting about 64 bit OS. Everyone always points to all you get is better memory handling but that's not all by a long shot. Someone in another thread posted several links to explanations about it and it is a huge difference. Moving from 32 bit bus to 64 bit bus I would e…

x64 also feels really nice on a RPi4. I cannot really say I can compare in a professional way but I migrated a solution running on RPi3 to a RPi4 with x64 and now it is really fast, especially noticed when loading the flow in the browser (mainly due to RPi3 to RPi4 of course). Anyway, no problems no…

I can't see anything in those links that suggest that there should be anything like a doubling in speed.

Also, that is related to processor limited benchmarks, which ties up with what is said in the original post, that the improvement is mainly seen in benchmarks. In practice, in the sort of real world applications we usually deal with here, it is rare for processes to be CPU bound. So there may well…
