Well, i was running fusion with 2gb of ram and windows 64-bit on my mbp and it was a bit sluggish. If performance is your main priority, you should run boot camp wich will mean that Windows gets the whole 4gb and will run more smoothly. If you want the ease of flipping between the 2 operating systems without the hastle of rebooting, then fusion is great. I upgraded my mbp to 8gb and gave windows 4, that sorted it out but on the air, you're maxed out at 4.
