My experience is quite good with 32bit guests on 64bit hosts (I'm running one 
right now on an Ubuntu hybrid host, 64bit kernel and 32bit distro), I've run 
rarely 64bit guests at all.

The problem is that we must still identify the one critical bug which is 
biting so many people - I haven't been following the issue closely because I 
was busy.
