32bit questions

I have 2 or 3 workable 32-bit x86 machines I could set up to run clients on, but I'd have a couple questions.

The newest F@H Linux client for 32bit is v7.4, and I see the current 64bit is 7.5. I'm presuming 7.4 will still will still connect, and can be managed from a v7.5 controller on x86_64.

Also, given the expectation that the 32bit machines would have less computational power than a recent 64bit system, does the client take this into account, handing smaller jobs to those machines so the results of a large job doesn't get hung up on a slow machine?

Linux 32-bit is no longer supported for folding. The 32-bit FAHControl is still provided for those who want to use a system running 32-bit Linux as a remote monitoring and control system. There are no Linux 32-bit folding cores for GPU or CPU folding that are active.
