Which A64 3000+ are you referring to? There's one with 1MB of L2 that is 1.8GHz and one with 512K of L2 that's 2GHz. For most practical purposes, the one with the higher clock but less cache is the faster one of the two. Although, either one of them should be faster than the P4 in most cases.
I think a better comparison would be IDT Winchip @ 2Ghz vs Prescott @ 2Ghz, should be a good matchup, assuming you can cool the Winchip with liquid helium or something :)
