Hi,
 
We are planning to buy a 64-bit Linux machine which will mainly run R.
There was an interesting thread on 64-bits on r-help back in April that
basically confirmed that the 64-bit R is fine as long as the length of
an atomic object is less than 2^31 - 1.
 
My specific question is on which 64-bit Linux distros (SUSE or RedHat)
and processors R is *known* to build out-of-box and run well. Ease of
maintenance is essential here. We have RedHat 7.3 on other (32-bit)
machines and would try not to proliferate the OS-s.
 
 
Your information will be highly appreciated,
 
Thanks,
Vadim
