That seems like a decent improvement...

Ahhm, not to be really nitpicky here, but 'dual' usually means 2, not 4.
Are you using a dual P4 or a Quad P4 :)

Another performance tweak might be to add a separate SCSI bus and 
hang a the log disk off that bus.  To go even further, you could get 
3+ drives and use something like RAID 3 or RAID 1 which should 
enhance write performance.  Of course, I don't expect these changes 
to have any major impact.
