Arrow Benchmark your Mac

This is a little CPU benchmark utility that was written by rharder. This benchmark calculates 10 million very complicated high precision random numbers and records the time that it took to complete the task.

This is not a multi-threaded application, so only one processor will be used. I don't know how to multi-thread it, and don't have a DP machine to test it anyway.

The file downloads as "attachment.php" which you can drag and drop onto Stuffit (it will not open it by itself).

Changes since the previous version:
1. Progress Bar Indicator now works so you can see the program chugging away.
2. Added a quick little icon
3. Added more description in the application.

If you download this and test your system, please post your results here.

CPU: 400mhz G4
Model: G4 Desktop AGP
RAM: 256MB
OSX Build: 10.0.4
Time: 2.183 minutes
