64-bits on its surface doesn't add much - just more available memory space,
and native 64-bit arithmetic (so, if you use lots of longs and doubles, things
will be a bit faster).
However, the x86-64 architecture also adds a bunch of registers to the
platform compared to the previous x86 chips, as well as a few new instructions
(SSE2/3). These all make for a modest speed boost even at the same clock
speed.
My experience is that if you upgrade the OS from 32-bit to 64-bit, you will
see a small performance improvement, but not huge.
