The AMD K6 chips are pretty compatible with their Intel counterparts so
the Pentium optimizations improve performance on AMD chips as well.

Of course, it's probably also possible to optimize even further for a
Pentium II/III, or more specifically for an AMD, but the performance
differences would probably be negligible (someone else please correct me
if I'm wrong).
