What is the best processor for PearPC?
Does a 64-bit processor like the Athlon 64 work better than
a 32-bit processor (like a Pentium 4 or a Pentium M)?

According to some of the more hardcore analysis, the theoretical best processor for running PPC would be a Pentium M, since it has the shortest pipeline. However, you will get great performance out at the Athlon64 procs when you use the Athlon nightly builds.
