The record size in a hash database should be the same on 64 bit 
processors as it is on 32 bit processors.  I haven't tested that though 
since I don't have a 64 bit system to test on.

A great test to run would be to build a hash database on a 32 bit 
system, export that to a file, import that file into a database on a 64 
bit system, export on that 64 bit system to a new file and then diff the 
two export files.  They should be identical.

Thanks,
