I think at some point the P4 will have enough cache that it will make up for the lousy design.

Everyone else should have such a bad design. It's just the fastest integer processor in the universe and the only thing in it's league is the power4 design from IBM. They need SOI, over 1.5MBs of on die cache and 128 Meg of L3 to tie the P4 in SPECint and that's without HT running on the P4. Your description of a lousy design is absurd by definition but not unexpected.
