1) 2038 problem. Linux kernel syscall and even the Windows 32 bit version of their API is infected with this. Best way to start addressing this problem is cease making 32 bit applications.
2) Address space randomisation works better on 64 bit applications than 32 bit ones. Yes even 32 bit ones running on a 64 bit kernel is less secure than a 64 bit version of that program.
3) Due to Intel work on compilers 64 bit is faster or equal than 32 bit in all test cases. So if you truly care about performance you don't really want 32 bit parts.
