FWIW, I've never come across companies who cared about 64-bit
anything, except for integer sizes. Now array sizes, string offsets
or integer array offsets. Even those who care about 64-bit binaries
typically do it due to being misinformed that it's somehow help them,
when in reality it'll give them nothing but reduced performance and
increased memory footprint.
On the flip side, I've come across countless companies (and
developers) who care about performance. Actually it's rare to find
ones that don't.
