Actually should be the other way round.  Doubling of word size means that every pointer, file reference, standard integer etc takes up 8 bytes instead of 4, thus 64bit apps almost always have a larger memory and disk footprint than equivalent 32bit app.

Maybe it doesn't need to access the pagefile because it can use all the RAM, vs the 32-bit which cuts the RAM storage in half?

Or I could just be entirely wrong. But it always seems my HDD drive starts spinning up a lot more in 32-bit than 64-bit Hmmm
