Mac OS X
========

This section describes how to install groonga on Mac OS X. You can
install groonga by `MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/>`_ or `Homebrew
<http://mxcl.github.com/homebrew/>`_.

We distribute both 32-bit and 64-bit packages but we strongly
recommend a 64-bit package for server. You should use a 32-bit package
just only for tests or development. You will encounter an out of
memory error with a 32-bit package even if you just process medium
size data.
