There probably isn't much of a difference in performance between the chips using CF, the P3 might have an advantage doing database stuff though. Personally I'd get the P3, and a dual proc board if those were the only choices. The P4 Xeon's aren't worth it until they hit 1.8 with the new Hyperthreading, which is a big plus for CF.
