64-Bit Processing
The introduction to 64-bit integers allows for a new type of computer, the 64-bit computer. The primary benefit of 64-bit computing is that it supports more than the 4GB of RAM limit that 32bit processes are bound by The RAM can support at max bytes of memory which is 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 bytes (16 Exabytes), enhancing the performance of most programs.
