"c't" magazine has an interesting program for x86.  I think it is
somewhere on their web site, and they publish results from time
to time.  (It has been awhile since I ran it, but, it seems to me
that it has to run in (unprotected) DOS mode on W95.  My German
is not too good, but, you can look here:

 http://www.heise.de/
 http://www.heise.de/ct/ftp/pcconfig.shtml

I think the file you want is ctcm161.zip
If you find a place where the results are collected, let us know.



There are ctcm results on Tom's Hardware page also:

 http://sysdoc.pair.com/
 http://sysdoc.pair.com/ctcm.html

No slot I/II, LX/BX results though.



John McCalpin's stream benchmarks are to be found on:

 http://www.cs.virginia.edu/stream/
 http://www.cs.virginia.edu/stream/standard/Bandwidth.html



There is still some useful stuff around Larry McVoy's lmbench
site, although it is getting a little stale:

 http://reality.sgi.com/lm/lmbench/lmbench-summary



A different approach, which I find very useful, is the Hint
benchmark from the (DoE) Ames Lab (Ames, Iowa - not NASA Ames).
