Details, details man! Give us details! Give a small review if possible .
Well, I did post a small benchmark here :-D
The G4 is definitely showing some muscle and that is even without altivec support in dnetc (which I am working on with some other developers to try to get into the dnetc client) :-P
Careful with benchmarks since one could show the opposite results.

Celeron 566 running Mandrake Linux 8.2

It's depressing to see my cheap Mandrake linux box (566 celeron with 190 mb RAM) beating a G4 800.

Refer to;
For Linux's install-egcs/install-glibc/cross-gcc benchmarks On personal note; The following benchmarks would be nice.
1. Quake I and II (SW render)
2. 68K AmigaMark 2003.
3. MPEG2 to MPEG4 conversion.
$299 USD** PPC with AmigaOS 4.0(official edition) set-up would be nice.
**About $600 AUD.
Note that OGR benchmarks was also being use for Athlon XP VS Pentium 4 battle royal.
My very old Athlon 1.1Ghz delivers the following;
[Feb 18 09:41:47 UTC] Automatic processor type detection found
an AMD K7-4 (Athlon Thunderbird) processor.
[Feb 18 09:41:47 UTC] OGR: using core #0 (GARSP 5.13-A).
[Feb 18 09:42:07 UTC] OGR: Benchmark for core #0 (GARSP 5.13-A)
0.00:00:17.18 [8,413,541 nodes/sec]
[Feb 18 09:42:07 UTC] OGR: using core #1 (GARSP 5.13-B).
[Feb 18 09:42:27 UTC] OGR: Benchmark for core #1 (GARSP 5.13-B)
0.00:00:17.10 [8,629,686 nodes/sec]
IF I clock it to 1.33Ghz, this old box may beat your Pentium 4 2.4Ghz.
I’ll test it in Athlon XP 1800+/ASUS nForce 2-Deluxe later…
