Zealotry aside?  An U10 w/ a 440/2meg processor is pretty studly.
assuming equivalent disk subsystems and no need for 64 bit PCI,
The U30 won't start to pull away from that U10 performance-wise until you 
start playing with large amounts of RAM and Memory-Intensive applications.

The U30 is capable of 2-way bit interleaving if the memory banks are filled 
in right, giving it a slight boost in memory bandwidth.  IIRC, it can also 
handle more main memory, and might perform better with a heavy load of PCI 
cards (I think the U30 had dual PCI busses)
