I've made some simple measurements of how long opcodes take to execute and how long it takes to go around the mainloop, using the Pentim timestamp counter, which measures processor cycles.
The results aren't particularly surprising, but they provide some empirical validation of what we've believed all along. I don't have time to go into all the gory details here, though I plan to at Spam 10 developers day next week.
I put together a few Web pages that summarize the data I've collected on some simple benchmarks:

Comments and questions are welcome. I've got a little time to do more measurement and analysis before devday.
