you are wrong...from where you got that numbers?
the 060/50 is not twice faster than the 040/40....it's only about 25% faster
in fact both cpu are idem core and a 040/50 overclocked runs at idem speed on integer like a 060/50

sysinfo reports

040/40                      31 mips
040/50 overcloclked     38 mips
060/50                      38 mips

That's a more accurate comparison.
At similar clock speeds there is little difference.

Of course the '060 can be clocked even higher.

The EC models (which unfortunately do not include a math co-processor) are good for 75MHz or higher.
