The p2 is huge and uses a huge heat sink. The chip has more surface area to
dissipate all the heat. Think of it this way: take a blowtorch to a tin can.
The can gets hot quick. Now take the same blowtorch to a car. The car will
never get as hot as the can did.

Deschutes (the P2-333) is made using a 0.25 micron process (previous P2's
were 0.35 micron), which results in lower voltage requirements, lower power
consumption and lower heat generation.
