Maybe do a 32bit OS/Apps vs 64bit OS/Apps, and do 2mb vs 4mb cache benchies. Show us the performance hits/gains of each!

I've been interested in the cache thrashing debate but either missed or there never were any links posted to any benchies to prove one way or another.

I figured that since I do enjoy THG so much and you guys need ideas, this is my 2 cents. =)
 
It's been 2.5 years since the last set of benchmarks comparing 32 and 64 bit operating systems. I've been hoping to find an article that compared 32/64 bit XP against Vista 32/64. I'd also be interested in different hardware support for 64 bit, like video cards.
