Just benchmarked two servers, a VPS I have some stuff on and a new server from Razor that I'm testing out. Hoping some people here will run this benchmark as well and post their results. I shut off apache before I ran the tests on my VPS to keep things somewhat fair, so it was under basically no load, and the new server is a fresh install.
I'll have results from a $20 linode VPS later tonight on a friend's box that I'll post here as well.
To install this you'll need gcc, so apt-get install gcc or yum install gcc or whatever
wget

gunzip -dvc unixbench-4.1.0-wht.tar.gz | tar xvf -
cd unixbench-4.1.0-wht-2
make all
./Run
Tests took 8-10 minutes for me.
