Few technical questions

Today as we were boarding our SwissAir A330 bound for Zurich sat just behind the wings, this loud akin to a large dog 'barking' noise coming from below, sounded like a pump or actuator pulsing away, almost like the noise some flap pumps make, anyway we hadn't even pushed back. It stopped eventually before we pushed, i just wondered what it was, not heard it sitting there before.

Also in basic laymans terms! How do they differ to an A320 is it just capacity?

Like to say how impressed i am with Swiss Air, planes seem immaculate
well maintained and pilots always very good.
