  There may be several answers, I'll try them all.     

  1. Last time I checked, nobody was archiving the comp.benchmarks 
     *newsgroup*. 

  2. The X terminal benchmarks from the April 1st issue of "Unix Today!"
     are available on uunet.uu.net as the files:       
     /unix-today/benchmarks/4191.bench.tar.Z
     /unix-today/benchmarks/x11perfcompDR

     You will also need version 1.2 of x11perf which is on uunet.uu.net
     as:

     /X/contrib/x11perf.tar.Z

     You can access uunet.uu.net via anonymous FTP or dial-up. Call
     UUNET for details: (703) 876-5050

  3. If you are looking for Wes Morgan's benchmark archive which contains
     source for lots of different benchmarks, you can access via 
     anonymous FTP from:

     wuarchive.wustl.edu   

   
     hope this helps,

      Jason
