The A330 has a cargo fire extinguishing system. There hasn't been any mention of whether this was used or not. Considering it is an enclosed space, its use may or may influence an evacuation decision. Airbus cargo detection systems can be sensitive. I've had one go off on the ground with the door wide open as a ground vehicle drove past the door.
