<Which tags?> I could be wrong about increased superpipelineability. It looks like every tag was redesigned with newer XOR gates: "To achieve Pentium-III processor operating frequency, numerous speed paths needed to be optimized. One category relates to the use of domino tag comparators incorporated in various caches and buffers across the micro-architecture comprised of 8T XOR cells. An XOR gate shown in Figure 5.7.3 outperforms previous implementations on this processor in terms of delay, contention, backwriting, and reduced cross-capacitance impact." - from ISSCC '99
