The focus on 64 bit support has always been to provide 64 bit executables where there is a capacity need. There is no benefit in running 64 bit apps otherwise (it just increases your memory consumption!)
So support has (so far) been limited to layout, stream in/out, physical verification, and simulation. That means for DFII, the "layout" executable is available in 64 bit mode.
In the upcoming IC614 release, Cadence should be providing 64-bit support across Virtuoso, as this is becoming increasingly necessary.
Regards,
Andrew.
