java : 64 bit or 32 bit
Our customers are at a stage when some of them might benefit from a heap greater than 4 GB. <br>

Some questions<br>
Is 64-bit java stable ?<br>
Is it mission-critical/production app ready ?<br>
Are there other advantages that will make me use 64-bit ?<br>
which OSes(and which versioin) will java 64-bit work fine right now ?<br>

disadvantages<br>
=============<br>
any tooling issue that will prevent me from using java 64 bit ? IDE, profiler, libraries, etc<br>

thank you,<br>
