[sr-dev] Fw: 32bit vs 64bit build problems

[Daniel-Constantin Mierla]

Hi Paul,

indeed, some of these stats are not consistent. I will go through them. 
General idea is that the old stats framework will be replaced by a new 
one (present already in the code) that does not need any kind of locking 
when updating the counters, thus is faster.

If you have specific examples of current stats that go nuts in 64b, 
please report them here so I will start with them then I will go through 
the rest of sources.

Thanks,
Daniel
