I just thought that some people here might be interested in this post
which was originally posted to comp.arch.fpga.

performance of seven top PC MPUs on Quartus-II Web Edition place and
route task.
Johan is a real professional when it comes to benchmarking computers.
His results can be safely relied on.

Probably the article would be of interest for participants of
comp.arch.fpga

Johan recognizes that the test design was uncharacteristically small
by modern FPGA's standards. He is willing to improve the benchmark.
Please, post you proposals for improvements in the aceshardware
message board.

Just keep in mind that
A. Benchmarks have to utilize free or donated tools and free or
donated design files.
B. Johan is not logic designer. Try to make benchmarks setup easier
for him. He has more than enough head ashes with the hardware he is
testing, doesn't have to mess with software as well.

Regards,
Michael

P.S.
Many thank to Zhao Ming, who supplied radix-4 CFFT core that served as
the basis for the benchmark.
And of course to Altera Corporation for free Quartus tools.
