about 8m for ver 3.6.5
but only 3.8 - 4.6m for 3.6.6 and 3.6.7

what has changed?

Thanks

I'm only compiling the 64bit build now.   Thus, all the 32bit stuff is gone from the download.   If anyone needs the 32bit builds, I can restore it, but I'm going to doubt anyone needs it. 

The Mac isn't like Windows where you need a separate executable for 64bit and 32bit.  Both are contained in the same executable.  However, building both takes double the time (which affects me when debugging/developing) and the executable is twice the size.   If nobody needs it, why bother?

Hi Dan

That makes perfect sense. I also don't see a reason for 32bit version on the Mac

Thanks for the quick reply.
