Benchmark

cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep bogo

bogomips : 3979.99

Gives some indications but this is during boot and after boot the system might run differently as with higher clock rate.

For performance measurements programs as sysbench are more suitable : sysbench --test=cpu run

Alternatives are geekbench

or for Gentoo simply do: time emerge -1 gcc and compare this with other computers
