I'm not sure that that is completely true; I've run a small 32-bit file server and it ran for half a year or more (except when I wanted to upgrade) But that system had only 512 MB memory and I made the kernel's VA bigger than the 512 MB, so it could map twice or three times that. But it is a problem when you more memory then you can map (1GB will probably still work but 2GB is "too big". I've now upgraded the system to an atom board (I don't care all that much about its performance) but it does run 64 bit.
