I'm more interested in seeing cross platform tests that don't involve the UI, or file system or other OS hosted stuff.

String, math, objects, arrays, that sort of thing, is more interesting to me. Because then I can get a better comparison about the relative speed. Of course theres always many causes of speed differences, RB itself, the machines themselves and backgruond programs slowing things down.

Once you got an idea of the speed difference with strings, math, objects, and arrays, this helps to get perspective with the UI stuff.

Generally, RB isn't suited to adding a huge amount of data into a listbox. Apple do it the "proper" way, which is to use a data provider interface. RB's way is simpler, but slower. Both routes are actually valid, but RB's route does not scale to all sizes of data, whereas Apple's route works equally well on any amount of data.
