A quick-n-dirty CPU benchmark is to just run
  openssl speed [algorithm]
and compare the results of the various hashing and encryption
algorithms.  For example:

~]$ openssl speed md5
Doing md5 for 3s on 16 size blocks: 11289961 md5's in 3.00s
Doing md5 for 3s on 64 size blocks: 8221348 md5's in 2.99s
Doing md5 for 3s on 256 size blocks: 4560242 md5's in 3.00s
...
...
The 'numbers' are in 1000s of bytes per second processed.
type             16 bytes     64 bytes    256 bytes   1024 bytes   8192 bytes
md5              60213.13k   175975.34k   389140.65k   551768.06k   630786.73k


Another is to calculate pi out to some number of digits and time it.
For example, on my laptop with a Core i7-4600U, calculating to 10,000
digits takes nearly 2 minutes:

~]$ time bc -l <<<'scale=10000;pi=4*a(1);0'
0

real    1m48.646s
user    1m48.590s
sys     0m0.011s


Meanwhile, my Trimslice with a 1GHz Tegra 2 takes over 10 minutes:

~]$ time bc -l <<<'scale=10000;pi=4*a(1);0'
0

real    10m14.643s
user    10m14.523s
sys     0m0.028s
