* Support Vista and Windows 7 64-bit systems
* 64-bit executable runnable with HW DEP and ASLR
* Optimized for Core 2 Duo and later Xeons with 64-bits, NX, SSE2, SSE3, SSSE3
* MacOS X
* Support Leopard and Snowleopard 64-bit systems
* 64-bit executable supporting all snowleopard security features (still hazy?)
* Optimized for Core 2 Duo and later Xeons with 64-bits, NX, SSE2, SSE3, SSSE3
* Linux
* Support 64-bit versions
* Support whatever security is generally available
* Optimized for Core 2 Duo and later Xeons with 64-bits, NX, SSE2, SSE3, SSSE3
* Although some code may slow down ~10% with longer addresses, use of the XMM registers greatly speeds up some code as well. Overall, I would expect performance to be about the same based on other benchmarks. Not everyone will be able to run these binaries, but, IE8 on Vista 64 already has these enhancements, and I would hate to see Firefox not have them available.
