Snapshots of my current development version are available on request. This will include x86_64 on Linux 2.6 for single-threaded programs only (at least in my testing). Therefore, this excludes LAM/MPI, which uses a checkpoint thread. Note that we will never support x86_64 with a 2 .4 kernel. -Paul Leon wrote: >Kris Buggenhout,??! > > I expect to see the new version of BLCR supporting AMD Opteron 64 for 2.4 kernel earily.
