As the subject states, can a 32 bit guest be on a 64 bit host, and if so, is there any performance hit, or other issues? Thank you.

Yes, I use this every day.

Are there any performance issues to be wary about?

I am really not sure why I bother putting "Google your Q site:VirtualBox.org or search for the answer before posting". See: http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic. ... 0181#60181 for one little example. Basically the answer is no.

come on terry, i'm sure you're not new to forums so must know that nobody bothers to search

and yes 64-bit hosts can run 32-bit guests perfectly with no performance impact, i do it all the time.
