64-bit software uses a bit more memory on average. I would have zero doubts that it used a bit more compared to 32-bit.

the fact that most win7, win8+ OS sales are x64 and most new pcs are multi-core with large ram capacity has not sunk in to them yet.
is too much like work, so they leave that to 3rd party builders. the pgo builds is a s close as mozilla gets.
fully optimizing for the extra memory, larger variables, and low level codes. etc.

Once you go 64-bit you can never go back, especially when you have lots of ram and things runs alot smoother with 64-bit than with 32-bit like flash.
