A possible application that can be used for benchmarking purposes is the source for ARS (Account Registration System is the accepted full version IIRC) used on ars.userfriendly.org. It is production source used on a heavily loaded site, and according to the author and maintainer of the site it is run on a single server P-III server (can't remember the exact spec re: speed and RAM) which serves several large dynamic pages every second (again I can't recall exact figures). Compared to figures about slashdot it kicks so much arse it's not even funny. In the technical details dept. the code caches aggressively, stores data in a MySQL DB, and IIRC the DB is hosted on a separate machine in the case og ars.userfriendly.org. The code is available at http://ars.userfriendly.org/ars.tar.gz.
