The C-Ray ray-tracing performance has improved very nicely with time, largely due to advancements within the GNU Compiler Collection.

Smallpt regresses though with GCC 4.7.1.

Apache is marching ahead with time.

These Ubuntu 10.10/12.04/12.10 benchmarks continue on OpenBenchmarking.org with more data for those interested how the Intel Atom has evolved performance-wise under Linux since 2010. As a whole, the Intel Atom Linux performance has matured quite nicely.
