This site has the benchmark, http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~mccalpin/

Here's what I got on the following hardware:

Tyan Tempest II MB (Neptune based and slow)
32MB 60ns parity RAM 2 x 16MB simms
P166

-------------------------------------------------------------
This system uses 8 bytes per DOUBLE PRECISION word.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Array size = 1000000, Offset = 0
Total memory required = 22.9 MB.
Each test is run 10 times, but only
the *best* time for each is used.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Your clock granularity/precision appears to be 7812 microseconds.
Each test below will take on the order of 250000 microseconds.
   (= 32 clock ticks)
Increase the size of the arrays if this shows that
you are not getting at least 20 clock ticks per test.
-------------------------------------------------------------
WARNING: The above is only a rough guideline.
For best results, please be sure you know the
precision of your system timer.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Function      Rate (MB/s)   RMS time     Min time     Max time
Assignment:    40.1569       0.4073       0.3984       0.4453
Scaling   :    40.1569       0.4228       0.3984       0.5156
Summing   :    49.5484       0.5183       0.4844       0.6094
SAXPYing  :    49.5484       0.5247       0.4844       0.6328


I compiled it on FreeBSD Current.

	cc -O stream_d.c second_cpu.c -o stream_d -lm

I'm curious to see some numbers from others, especially from people with
Tyan Tomcat I or II motherboards.  The Tomcat I was used in the recent
BSDI web benchmarks.
