lame benchmarks (pun intended)

An invalid comparison. The PPC Macs are outdated hardware from 2006, the X1000 is brand new hardware! As such the X1000 should be compared to current hardware.

From the A-eon website:

The X1000 ends the years of AmigaOS being relegated to a ghetto of outdated hardware - great as it was at the time, the world has moved on a long way since the days of Commodore. For the first time in many years, AmigaOS has a genuinely modern hardware platform.

Piru - any chance to benchmark it under experimental MorphOS on G5 Mac?

Piru, also could you link the source audio file you used in the conversion?

Where can I find a windows binary of this lame encoder? Looked but only found source tarballs. I'd like to run this test on a windows and linux machine and see the results and how they stack up against x1000 on quad core and 6 core intel machines.

No command line. There's a couple there that appear to be lame with a GUI frontend, but all the rest incorporate lame as programmatic interface and seem to use lame as just one step in their processing.
