I would guess yes, just based on the L1/L2 (later L3) use and sizing between all those systems. 2002 vs 2022 is K8 vs 5800X3D for AMD, so you're looking at having 1 core and 64+64KB of L1 cache, 512KB of L2 cache[1] vs 8 cores (+ht) and 32+32KB L1 per core, 512KB L2 per core, 96MB L3.

Just managing the cache access between L2 and L3 I think would be additional consideration, but then you have to consider the actual architectural differences and on server chips locality will matter quite a bit.
