This assumes PNetMark is a valid benchmark program: it's not enough for
a benchmark to be well-understood, it should also reflect usage
patterns, for example, to have any respectable results.
Hopefully some independent expert will write a benchmark for the CLR
or an existing benchmark may be ported and validated.
In the mean time the field is open for armchair benchmarkers! :-)
