Anybody running Linux on a 68030?

[Failure]

I am looking for someone running Linux on a 68030/25MHz Amiga, preferably an A3000 using the internal SCSI and an A2065 NIC but I am not especially picky really.  I would like to do some performance comparisons between the Linux Amiga and my Amiga running Commodore Amiga UNIX.  Just for fun (as if anybody would take such benchmarks seriously!).

Hell, did I say Linux?  Bias I guess on my part -- any BSD is fine too.

Ideas I had for comparison were:

* filesystem throughput using bonnie
* bzip2/gzip comparison (results probably meaningless but hey)
* network throughput using rcp, scp, http, nfs, and ftp
* ssh-keygen speed (Linux/BSD should blow the doors of AMIX here for various reasons)

Any ideas for more tests?  Assuming I can find somebody interested in helping me.

Oh, and it would be really helpful if you can compile the same versions of software I am using.  I am version-locked on some things, notably gcc, due to AMIX being rather abandoned in terms of support.

My 3000 dual-boots Linux and AMIX, so if I actually get round to switching it on again, I ought to be able to do some comparative tests on identical hardware.

Excellent!  If you don't mind applying some power to your A3000, your setup seems ideal.

I meant to ask the senior SE at work about some other ways to measure the relative performance/efficiency of the OSs but it slipped my mind.  Been so busy with other stuff at work lately.

I guess since there seems to be some interest from folks with different hardware specs, and I am interested to see how they perform myself...I will make a wiki page to post the results as they come in.  I'll throw a link here once I get the first round done on my machine.  Thanks everyone for the offers :-)

Check out this blistering speed!  Bonnie (last rev, not Bonnie++) on Amiga UNIX 2.1c:
