• Raspberry Pi OS 64-bit

    Hi g00r00,

    I recently updated my copy of Raspberry Pi OS to bullseye from buster and noticed that they're now offering official 64-bit builds.

    Oli pointed to to some benchmarks of the performance improvements of the OS on the same hardware (really about the only one that would affect me is the 7z compression improvements).

    I'm still running the 32bit version, but if you were to make a 64bit version of Mystic available, I have another pi around here somewhere I could run some tests on.

    Thanks for the heads up! Now that it is out of beta I will have to make a larger effort to get it working.

    I did try some 64-bit builds earlier on in the OS beta but there were lots of problems. I decided that it would probably be best to wait for an official release.

    I have a Pi 3 sitting around here somewhere that should be compatbile!
