As for me, the worst thing with wine on amd64 is that wineserver is
using 100% cpu all the time and so it is kind of slowier than wine on 
i386. The only game i play for now is dwarf fortress, it is really 
cpu-using game, and on my pretty-old laptop with i386 and 2.2GHz cpu 
it runs little faster than on amd64 3.0GHz machine.
Btw, does that wineserver behavior reproduce for anyone?
