You might try to look at a better CPU like K6-II/450, K6-III or somesuch. Second-hand dump stores might have the processors in stock, if not solo, then probably even with a motherboard. Socket 7 motherboards used to have L2 cache on themselves (unlike P-IIs which had everything - L1 cache, L2 cach

That, and possibly kernel/code optimisation for the P-II
