You could setup xdebug or Zend and profile your site....but benchmarking is such a subjective thing. It relies a lot on your server setup, etc.
What you could do is say build your own blog - and load it up with the same articles as say an installation of Wordpress or something. Then profile both. See the difference. BUT that's only going to get you so far. Your specific machine's PHP.ini, and other settings AND cpu speed/ram is different from the host you'll be on (most likely)...AND you're testing locally - not through the internet. Now. A more accurate test would be to run the same test on the host you'll be at...but can you get xdebug or something like that setup on your host? Also, you've just gone through a bunch of time to find out if you can build an application faster than Wordpress or Drupal or Joomla! or whatever. My bet, you did build one faster...because all those systems load extra things you probably don't have when you build a custom solution. These CMS' out there try to cover all the bases best they can. That means a lot of overhead. A custom solution is -usually- going to be faster. Plus it's super hard to test for this anyway given all the variables. Just know that CakePHP has some really great scalability and performance options with many different ways to cache data, VERY good control over your queries, and along with the design pattern and such it's really efficient for OO PHP...you just have to be sure you're writing efficient code... ie. be aware of your findAll's and what you're bringing back...do you need it all? Be aware of your custom functions and special operations that you're using, etc. In my opinion - Cake's the best thing since sliced bread for web apps.
