The Llano parts produced mixed results with NASA's NAS Parallel Benchmarks.

More benchmarks of the AMD A8-3870K APU can be found on OpenBenchmarking.org (there's more than three-dozen benchmarks in total that were run via the Phoronix Test Suite). Stay tuned for more overclocking coverage, new open-source Radeon HD 6550D Gallium3D results, and other Linux tests from this new AMD Llano APU.

You can compare your BSD/Linux/Solaris system to these test results in this article by running the command phoronix-test-suite benchmark 1112252-AR-A83870K9827. That command will download, install, and reproduce the tests in a fully automated and controlled manner while plotting your results side-by-side with the various Intel/AMD processors used in this review.
