The bogomips between an intel x86 3.4Ghz regular processor and the x86_64 xeon em64t processors (cache sizes the same) are actually identical (6800). The difference in responsiveness of gnome between the two is stark. Published benchmarks (Tom's Hardware) show the em64t and amd64 to have advantages in different areas.
