"Currently, users can still download a 32-bit Chrome beta, if they so choose. Will Google force users to upgrade to 64-bit Chrome by mid-September? We’ll have to wait and see."

How is that in any sense a statement that 32-bit Chrome is dead?

Speed: 64-bit allows us to take advantage of the latest processor and compiler optimizations, a more modern instruction set, and a calling convention that allows more function parameters to be passed quickly by registers. As a result, speed is improved, especially in graphics and multimedia content, where we see an average 25% improvement in performance.

Security: With Chrome able to take advantage of the latest OS features such as High Entropy ASLR on Windows 8, security is improved on 64-bit platforms as well. Those extra bits also help us better defend against exploitation techniques such as JIT spraying, and improve the effectiveness of our existing security defense features like heap partitioning.

Stability: Finally, we’ve observed a marked increase in stability for 64-bit Chrome over 32-bit Chrome. In particular, crash rates for the the renderer process (i.e. web content process) are almost half that of 32-bit Chrome.

the total market of users who still have a 32 bit OS and also know they can use a browser other than IE has to be 4 or 5 people tops
