Curious as to performance of my virtualbox guest server, so ran Unixbench 5.1.2 as per http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=924581 to see how it compares.
  • VirtualBox CentOS 5.5 64bit Guest
  • Xeon W3540 @3408Mhz (Assigned 2 cores only) - linux reports @3375Mhz
  • 64MB allocated GPU memory
  • 1GB out of 6GB DDR3-1550Mhz
  • 20GB out of 640GB Samsung SATAII

Code:
