return finder to 32 bit mode?

[tivoboy]

I know one can turn the finder and OS to 64 bit, by holding down the 6 and 4 keys during boot up. But, how can one do it the other way around (I'd like to simply try it again, since I am getting HUGE memory usage on my 4GB MBP) I have tried holding down the 3 and 2 keys upon boot up, but that doesn't seem to work?

Any other tips?

Snow Leopard reverts back to the 32-bit kernel (default) after a reset.

IIRC, the Finder will always run 64-bit regardless of the kernel which is running...

The devs at Apple haven't spent 6 months or so writing a new finder from scratch for nothing...

Yep. The Finder will run in 64-bit mode regardless of which kernel mode is used.
