Really honestly, theres not any kind of significant performance increase. If you have good compatibility youre able to run 32-bit binaries on a 64-bit machine, thats the performance you get. If you run a 64-bit binary, its not going to make much difference. The technology is cool, but theres really not that much point for doing it.
