You won't be able to access large amounts of memory in 32 bit mode. Also, the x86-64 mode has more CPU registers than x86 mode, so Python will typically run faster in 64 bit mode (this is more pronounced in AMD processors, in my experience). It will depend on your application whether 32 bit mode plus Psyco is faster than 64 bit mode.
