[Mono-list] tiny benchmark of current mono clr, java clr, ms clr

[Sergey Chaban]

BTW, speaking of benchmarks, I updated my 3D benchmark:
http://mono.eurosoft.od.ua/files/Gfx_NET.tar.gz

Now it includes "Null" driver to make it possible to run it on Linux.
In fact there was XLib-based driver but unfortunatelly I've lost that code by accident ;-(
Hint: porting this code to GTK# would be great. This would require creating GTK-backed
IDriver implementation.
