That's entirely dependant on what portion of the graphics pipeline you're talking about. The Cell is awe-inspiring at vertex ops. It just can't be used to do pixel/fragment ops efficiently. The more vertex ops you offload onto the Cell, the more breathing room the pixel pipelines have during the frame to do their work as well.
