Here is output on two of my systems for Fruit Massy (with the compile that is
fastest for the machines in question):

MSVC compile on 2.2 GHz AMD Athlon 64 bit with default hash:
info depth 14 seldepth 40 time 32406 nodes 23264935 nps 717921

Intel compile (with PGO performed on this machine) on 950 MHz AMD 32 bit (very
similar to the Massy machine):
info depth 14 seldepth 40 time 69920 nodes 23264935 nps 332736

46% of 64 bit machine's speed (looks about commensurate with CPU speed
difference).
