(Luckily I'm familiar enough to know them by their position in the interface.) But in my work on realistic or photorealistic images, when I get to the point that I just can't work any longer in the 32-bit version, I'll be happy to switch over to the 64-bit version, and hopefully be able to finish a very large image. It's hard to see and distinguish most of the icons, imo, and so far annoys me significantly, lol. I'm not sure I care much for the gray interface. So in my very few, very non-technical, and very simple tests, the 64-bit version does provide an improvement over the 32-bit version, as far as performance issues. It just froze up, and I had to force it closed. And technically, I'm not sure if what happened would be called a crash.effectively it was a crash, I guess. In the 64-bit, I got to 12 spirograms before it crashed. In the 32-bit version, I can only make 6 or 7 spirograms in a doc (using Spirograph extension) before Inkscape crashes.

But I did a test that should indicate how it handles large numbers of nodes. I had to zoom to 400% before there was any delay, while I have a delay in the 32-bit at 100% zoom (on this image). I was able to make many basic edits in the 64-bit, without any trouble. But when I opened the same image in the 32-bit version, my computer's fan started running (like it does when I do a major security scan, for example). In the 64-bit version, it ran with my computer idling. It opened immediately, while with the 32-bit version, I had to wait 10 to 12 sec. I was able to open a 12.8 mb file without any problems. Anyway, I found myself with some free time and installed it. But it is based on the current stable 32-bit version. I'm not sure if it would be called an official version or not. I've been curious about the 64-bit version of Inkscape, which can be found at.
