22 Just to let you peeps now, I've been thinking about this last night and
23 I'd love it if there was just a (simple) form where people could enter
24 their system credentials and benchmark results.
25
26 I'm going to do a little bit of investigation tonight in terms of
27 looking at standardised benchmarks.. I believe, from a bit of searching,
28 that the whole arena of benchmarking is a big mamma!
29
30 Wish me luck! If I get anything that looks like a go-er, I'll fire a
31 (probably crap) PHP page together, where people can input their system
32 specifics... and list them in a grid-matrix kinda view (it'd be a bit
33 easier to read than just forum posts i.m.h.o. and may provide a decent
34 intermediate until someone works out a MUCH clever system, lol)
35
36 Does anyone know if there's anything like this for other distros
37 (although due to Gentoo's lurvely package build system, I doubt we'd be
38 able to draw true comparisons)

40 Sorry if i'm rambling.... heh.
