Searching the
archive, there has been very little mention of
SuperCollider on this list in the past year
does it work on x86-64 yet? if no, can you get the same performance/functionality from
supyrcollider/hsc/ssc (et al) ?
The server appears to, since at least November 2005. As for the
language, it appears it only runs at 32. McCartney says:
"There shouldn't be any problem running it as a 32 bit app on a 64 bit machine.
SClang cannot be compiled for 64 bit because it relies on
sizeof(Object*) < sizeof(double).
This would require significant reworking to fix."
and
"I don't really see a big need to run the language in a 64 bit address
space, though."
See this thread:

I haven't used things like Rohan Drape's Scheme or Haskell
SuperCollider clients, so I can't really say much about them.
how about jack.. fully native?
I boot scserver and SuperCollider appears in Patchage automatically
hooked up to the audio outs. I can swap things around, like patching
SuperCollider into various channels in Ardour, Jamin, JAAA, or other
apps. I can patch audio into SuperCollider. I'm not using esd or
anything, if that's what you mean.
