well, the fact that linux 64 bit runs much faster contradicts that

one thing that we observed is that the lua garbage collected performs different on different platforms / architectures / cpu cache etc

Another way to get a speed penalty is when the exe 64-bit but some of
the libraries it (or the operating system) needs to use are 32-bit.
