The only good reason I am seeing is that your database
needs very large data cache, that 32 bit cannot cover,
so speeding up the applications by having much more
data cached.

In global 64-bit applications are slower then 32-bit.
I know this is not the rule, but if no crazy
mathematics is involved or no need for huge cache or
bigger HW that is only 64-bit no reasons to go from
32-bit Oracle.

As I said the other reason may be the application side
and not Oracle at all.
