It seems they did what I was expecting they are dropping old 32bit support, quoting : You can continue to run and debug your 32-bit apps. Our 64-bit upgrade Take advantage of all your computer’s resources to scale Visual Studio to the largest of projects and complex workloads without running out of memory.
Update: From the visualstudio 2022 preview site quoting : I put my bets on Visual Studio Code taking the place in time I guess bifurcation point for it will be some CPU manufacturer X starts to compete x86_64 architecture taking its place on mainstream market for laptop and/or workstation,
Visual Studio will have similar functionality like WOW64 for old extensions which is I believe unlikely to happen. Visual Studio Code will take it's place instead,. Visual Studio will drop 32bit support and become 64bit,. If same reasons forcing M$ making 64bit Windows starts to appear on need for 64Bit VS then I bet we will see 64bit VS, even though very same reasons everyone else here enlisted will stay same! In time the limitations of 32bit may hit VS as well, so most likely something like below start to happen: Then why they did start development for Windows 64bit? Simple! If they didn't succeed in making 64bit Windows I bet M$ would have been a history nowadays. I think at the time for Windows64 they had exact same reasons others have enlisted here about "reasons why not 64bit VS on windows" were on "reasons why not 64bit Windows" too. Imagine reasons for "why not we see 64bit Windows" are there at the time. So in order to answer this fully I want you to remember old days. Same situation happened in history: Windows 64!. Yes literally there is one called "Visual Studio" and is 64bit, but well, on Mac not on Windowsĭecision making is electro-chemical reaction made in our brain and that have an activation point (Nerdest answer I can come up with, but follow). Is there any 64 bit Visual Studio at all? Much native code is going to be quite high and of course all knownĮxtensions would break and we’d basically have to create a 64 bitĮcosystem pretty much like you do for drivers. 
Porting Visual Studio to 64 bit is to port most of it to managed code Secondly, from a cost perspective, probably the shortest path to Many of VS’sĪlgorithms are amenable to this. To do is to just use less memory in the first place. This can happen in some large solutions but I think a preferable thing Using the extra memory above 4G to your advantage. You start in a hole and you have to dig yourself out of that hole by That basically results in a raw speed hit (your mileage may vary). Structures get larger, and the processor cache stays the same size. First, from a performance perspective the pointers get larger, so data
