  benchmarking
         The best benchmark remains your own application. I assume you have profiled it and know         where it spends its time, and have optimised it where possible; running it will at least ensure         that the machine, operating system, and compiler exist, a factor often overlooked amidst         a profusion of numbers and promises.
