We've gotten a number of reports from users lately regarding OOM issues with git-cinnabar. Additionally, I've heard anecdotal evidence that Mercurial can run into issues on 32-bit these days under certain circumstances.
I created a hacked-up version of MozillaBuild with 64-bit python and it seems to work well (and I've gotten reports from multiple testers that their experience has been the same). I also seem to recall that compiling Firefox on 32-bit host OSes is basically broken anyway these days due to MSVC OOMs. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1344643#c2 So, is it time to officially make MozillaBuild require a 64-bit host? I don't really have the cycles to actively support two different releases, so it would make my life easier to just make the switch going forward. Note that this doesn't have any impact on still being able to create Firefox 32-bit builds via the MSVC cross-compiler. With the msys2 work stalled out, I'm planning a new 2.3 release anyway, so it would be great to get some feedback here before I proceed. -Ryan
