Not sure if anybody noticed that, but today I discovered that 32bit version of reaper (i386) is working much faster (GUI I mean) than 64bit on my iMac 27 2018 5k.
Unfortunately due to the fact is 32bit I cant really use it (I have all 64bit plugs).

But why is that? Why 32bit version is very usable comparing to 64bit (especially piano roll is not that choppy anymore)?
