Is it possible?

Background: some time ago I converted my atom 330 system (ASUS ION) to
64 bits. RAM is about 3.3GB, but usage never approaches the limit. My
problem is that firefox went snail. chromium seems OK (I can't recall
whether it was faster on 32 bits, but anyway the difference is small).

Firefox runs OK on a faster computer (i3) in the same LAN (also 64
bits). I assume the problem is CPU or MO specific.

I thought of using a 32 bit firefox, while keeping a 64 bit system. I
use a 64 bit custom kernel with support for 32 bit binaries. The
question is, how to compile firefox? (It is OK if I have to recompile
basic libraries, as long as this is stable...)

TIA
