matmult.tar.gz
The starter (Matrix add) and matmult (Matrix multiply using that ugly O(N3) algorithm that everybody should be able to figure out and definitely avoid), plus the timing.gnuplot file to generate the below.... be sure to change the CC variable in the Makefile from gcc if you want to benchmark some other system!

Plots
Various plots of benchmark runs on the CRAY SV-1, a Guitarist (Compaq, ~2.4Ghz?), and an Element (Custom built, older than the Guitarists). It took a while on the workstations, so I didn't even bother trying it on a Transformer (Custom, Dual 433Mhz Celerons). We also see why the CRAY eats the workstations for breakfast, once it gets up to speed....
