Yeah, also remember that intels and amds handle certain instructions differently, and you optimise(for speed anyways) in different ways. And of course these days you don't need to worry about AGIs because you just won't notice loosing a few clock cycles anymore.
An interesting article on Dr Dobbs shows how to run rings around a P2 300 with a P1 166 for example.

Intrinsic: Intresting. However, I haven't managed to run it fast again. What you say doesn't work here :(
They do have XP, and I remember that in one of their computers it did went fast. Anyways..
