Performance Benchmarks

  I may recommend you Linpack High Parallel benchmark which is used
also in TOP500 table where custers also are presented. URL:
//netlib2.cs.utk.edu/benchmark/hpl

There is a set of other known benhcmarks, in particular for MPI
itself, but if you want to see to computational performance
of your cluster, Linpack parallel looks as the simplest way.
