I did some tests with my most used apps (gcc, tar, bzip2...) about 2 and a half year ago with i386 and amd64-kernels. Nearly the same behavior, with one exception: I/O (disk and console) is much faster on amd64, but I don't know why... If anyone is interested in details, I can search the results of this tests runs.
