Here are the results of aim9 tests on x86_64. There are some minor performance 
improvements and some fluctuations. Page size is only a fourth of that on 
ia64 so the resulting benefit is less in terms of saved cacheline fetches.

The benefit is also likely higher on i386 because it can fit double the 
page table entries into a page.
