I run AMD64 arch in my server Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 with 2 GB of ram,
with SCHED_SMP and I have no real problems.

I did that to gain the SCHED peformance was done in 7.0 and MySQL
5.0.41 runs with no single issue or crash since 2 weeks with SCHED_SMP
and since 2 months with SCHED_ULE in both i386 and AMD64.

AMD64 runs MySQL faster, and Jeff removed more giant locked which made
it performs better.
So it's not a real problem trying it in heavy production server.
