That's a wrong assumption we're told here on the forum every day.

log10(3.5 GHz / 0.7 GHz) = log10(5) = 0.7

So about 70% of a magnitude faster. Where is your "magnitudes increase"?
You just have 5 CPU cycles on the host plattform for each PPC cycle. Please keep in mind that the instruction set differs a lot, so 5 cycles aren't that many.
