Is really a dual PIII 1000 really that much better than a single Athlon 1.4 Mhz?

My simple, and probably not correct math goes as follows: 1000mhz x2 = 2000mhz
Then subtract 25% due to search overhead, etc. etc. ? And the Athlon CPU is
faster at integer math? Makes the hardware seems more or less equal to me.
Or am I wrong? Or did someone show up with dual Athlons?
