I find that standard C-based computations tend to follow one of the
SPEC benchmarks in terms of relative speed of hardware (read the SPEC
algorithm descriptions to see which might match your mix of
computations). I am able to use the SPECfp and/or SPECint numbers to
predict my software's performance on new hardware.

If someone has access to an Intel box running both NT and Linux, I
think lots of folks in this newsgroup (like me :-) would be interested
in the IDL benchmark results.
