I decided to compare the performance of these versions, and see whether there are significant differences. Below is the percentage of how much x64 faster:

Macros operations with redrawing screen = ~20%
Macros operations without redrawing screen = ~10%
Save a cdr file = ~35%
Open a cdr file = ~40%
Export to bitmap (tif 300dpi cmyk) = ~25%
Import the resulting bitmap = ~10%
Raster processing (for example, filter Tone Curve) = ~35%

Result is relative of course, but it's give you approximate idea of how CorelDRAW X6 x64 version faster than the x86 version.
