Is this a 32- or 64-bit process?  (Running 'file' on the wireshark executable
should tell you.)
I guess it is the 32 bit edition - I just picked it from the download menu at
wireshark.org.

Ah, I suppose that makes sense if we continue to support older versions
(pre-Leopard?) of MacOS.


Given that the MacOS buildbot (at least the Intel one) is so fast, would it make sense to also build a 64-bit version of Wireshark? It seems a fair number of Mac users could benefit from the additional address space the 64-bit version gives.
