In Poser in general, not terribly useful because Poser is a 32-bit app. In Poser render time, negligible difference - if anything it'd be a bit slower because the OS has to run 32-bit apps in an emulator, but it works.
The benefit of 64-bit computing isn't speed, it's being able to address very large amounts of memory in applications that are written in 64-bit instructions. Since Poser isn't, at least up to this version, it doesn't help you. However in other apps, like Vue, Cinema 4D, 3ds Max and Maya etc. that have 64-bit versions, it can be VERY nice, because you have effectively no limit on memory the program is allowed to grab - this can enable you to render very complex scenes that are much harder to get done in 32-bit applications.
