It probably has more to do with the U5/333 having a 2M cache
versus a 256K cache.
At least, I believe the 333 had a 2M cache. There was also a
360 w/a 2M cache at one point (maybe just U10s had it) but I
was VERY excited when I got a 360Mhz Ultra 5 in... then I found
out they had just sped up the cruddy 256k processor =(
