Description:
The download page offers only a 32-bit version for Mac OS X.

Please add a 64-bit version for Mac OS X.

Thank you.

How to repeat:
Visit http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/tools/workbench/ and observe the only download for Mac OS X is Mac OS X (x86, 32-bit), DMG Archive

Suggested fix:
Create both 32-bit and 64-bit versions and make then available for download.

Hi

You can use the 32bit version in 64bit Macs. OTOH we do have plans for 64bit builds in the future.

I have the 64-bit version of MySQL installed and the 32-bit version of MySQL Workbench is unable to use the 64-bit versions of the plugins.

I see there are 64-bit versions of MySQL Workbench for Linux and 64-bit versions of MySQL for Mac OS X.

Why not any 64-bit versions of MySQL Workbench for Mac OS X?

Thanks.
