I'd be happy to hear of any reasonable yeardstick with which I could
compare them.  If anyone has run a task on these machines using
commonly used compilers and without substantial optimization, I'd
appreciate hearing the relative performance results.

If I had to boil my question down it'd go like this:

"Can a single transputer (any model) run my typical C application
significantly (say four or more times) faster than my 20
megaHertz 68030?"
