The Pentium 3 had a 14 stage pipeline which could process approximately 3 instructions per clock, whereas the Pentium 4 had a 31 stage pipeline which could process approximately 2 instructions per clock.
The Pentium 4 was given a lot of cache, and a high bus speed, which improved it a little generally. But it was still significantly behind the Pentium 3 per-clock.
The Pentium 4 basically was designed to clock high.
