Is there any benefit? I don't think I've ever seen Chrome need that much memory...
I think this is stopping me updating battlelog for BF4 and thus preventing me from playing, trying to find away back to 32 bit but so far looks like it auto selects 64 bit :(

I think it's just a case of re-installing the 32 bit version.
I cant find it, when you d/l chrome, its an installer which then pulls off the lstest version from their servers by the looks

Found this ...
Follow these steps :
Close all Chrome windows and tabs.
Go to the Start menu > Control Panel. (Windows 8 users: Learn how to access the Control Panel)
Click Programs and Features.
Double-click Google Chrome.
Click Uninstall from the confirmation dialog. If you want to delete your user profile information, like your browser preferences, bookmarks, and history, select the "Also delete your browsing data" checkbox.
then go to: http://www.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel and install it from there.
Cheers mate, ill give that a go, reading on the forums, EA wont invest in 64 bit plugins until they are more common, aka we dont want to spend money which can affect profit magins

Canary is an independent installation and should not affect the normal installation?

I thought that as well until I tried to use a web page which required Java and was then offered the 64 bit version of Java to download.
So far the only problem has been logging into my bank account as I cant enter my customer number in box provided. used Firefox to log in without any trouble. Google and bank advised.

Indeed, its an entirely different installation, and you can run both at the same time ;)
I'm on chrome 32 at mo but also have ie64 I have had some probs in the past with chrome plugins not working
Chrome is the most widely used browser in the world (out so I read yesterday) so most plugins should be working just fine unless you have a couple both trying to do the same thing and conflicting. Are there any particular plugins you have problems with and which plugins do you use?

sometimes i get a pop up saying a video plug in has stopped working but not much.
why call it canary tho?
chrome64 would have been better.
I had that before when I had both the embedded flash and an adobe flash enabled within Chrome. The internal worked fine, so I disabled the external one which fixed the problem.
As for the differences, other than personal preference as to style, I'd look at some of the comparisons on the web to see what's under the hood and makes them different. There's nowt wrong with using the browser you prefer the look of though!

Development code name ;)
As Kreg said, Canary is a separate install of the Development version, the full release code is not yet out, hence keeping it as a different install to allow both during development.
wikipedia
Quote"Canary" release; the name refers to using canaries in coal mines (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canary_in_a_coal_mine), so if a change "kills" Chrome Canary, they will block it from the developer build. Canary will be "the most bleeding-edge official version of Chrome and somewhat of a mix between Chrome dev and the Chromium snapshot builds". Canary releases run side-by-side with any other channel; it is not linked to the other Google Chrome installation and can therefore run different synchronization profiles, themes, and browser preferences
64-bit has evolved from the canary yellow dev versions to version 37 which is a release build.
If you want the 64 bit release you need to re-download Chrome 64 from here:
https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/?platform=win64
Install the downloaded file and you'll get:
Chrome Version 37.0.2062.94 (64-bit)
Loving the 64 bit still, and finally the got most plugins tho still some issues with plugins using that old netscape code.
