'Linux and other cluster benchmarks. Like MPI, (i dont see possible performance variance of openMP sense they use OS threads anyway) HPLinpack could be a start. you could benchmark networking equipment like that. or use Intel MPI Benchmark. You could make your own mpi benchmark tests to compare MPI implementation. Otherwise, ya compare bsd's new filesystems like Hammer and ZFS and such. Compare ZFS under bsd and [open]solaris and compare those to BTRFS and TuxFS. if you can Compare redhat's GFS and Orical's ClusterFS.

Please test the validity of the statement that compiling your kernel for your architecture does improve performance. My whole family can see the difference. But the majority can't seem to notice it or they aren't admitting to it.
Also test with High-Mem disabled for systems under 1 Gigabyte of memory.
And again test it with it enabled.

Tst ARM vs. x86
I would be highly interested in reading tests showing the performance and energy consumption of ARM vs. x86 ( netbook / tablet segment). I've never seen a real comparison showing the ARM architecture could reach the performance of the Atom CPU's, just the marketing is saying they consume less. There are a lot of new attendees such as Qualcomm Snapdragon, Nvidia Tegra (2?) or Marwell 610. The performance of the graphical processing would be interesting as well (not video decoding).

Another suggestion:
Video playback comparing the opensource vs the commercial codec performances.
Fluendo just released their Codec Pack version 11 and it has support for both VDPAU and VAAPI. I'd like to see what advantage I'd get with my ATI card since I have no player VAAPI support and I don't like compiling/patching.
