I have a p4 [email protected](153FSB Mem 204Mhz 2.5/3/3/7) and a Celeron [email protected](135FSB Mem 180Mhz 2/3/3/6)
The P4 crunches a WU in 2.5Hr and the Celeron crunches one in 4.5Hr

yep, they are that bad....
128k cache on an architecture that thrives on cache and memory bandwidth, on an application that loves the same.

Geez, you guys are getting good times out of your Celerons. Im lucky to get one in under 9 hours on my 1800. Now my P4 1.92 on the other hand ... is a far different story. About half the time for it.
