I second that pretty please! :D

I have a killer machine so there is no need for me to upgrade, but it is only 32-bit. I have been running Linux for months now but I have to dual-boot to Windows to run my renders. Is there any possible hope for a future 32-bit version of Maxwell on Linux? I just upgraded all of my licenses and would love to stay inside Linux to run my renders.

Thanks,
Mark.

Does Linux 32 bit have the same limitation as Windows 32 bit, where it can only access 2 GB RAM per application?

I don't think so. I think it will go up to 4GB with the right kernel option, which is set by default on most kernels these days.
But I'm not sure why that would matter since there is a 32-bit Windows version of Maxwell. :)

I was just curious. You said you have a killer machine, but with 32 bit RAM limitations, that's quite a bottleneck. I'm not opposed to a Linux 32 bit version if it fits your needs. :)

Ah - I see. Well it is a Dell XPS 710 - so I guess it is a little dated, but it still kills in my opinion. :D
