I imagine this isn't the right place for this, but i can't find a better one.

The correct one is this ([email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>)

I see the performance comparisons at http://l4hq.org/docs/performance.php are 
run on all different processors. In its current form, the performance numbers 
here are completely useless. It would be very informative to have real 
performance benchmarks where the exact same processor is used for every OS in 
comparison. Otherwise, what am I supposed to do with those number?

You’re right that comparisons across different processors are of limited power, 
but they aren’t useless either, especially when expressed in cycles (and 
ideally coupled with an understanding of the underlying hardware, eg the insane 
pipeline depth and speculation of the Pentium 4).

However, given that these are different implementations spanning 20 years (some 
written in assembler), it isn’t possible to run them on the same hardware.

The key observation is that no-one has ever done better on any of those 
processors.
