Here is a history of results that we have for hackbench from STP over
the base 2.5 and 2.6 kernels. I have them separated by the number of
processors from 1-, 2-, 4- and 8-processor systems.

Kernels not listed either do not have results or the kernel was not
able to be used on STP.
The 'Metric' is the average time in seconds to do something with 100
processes.
Smaller numbers are better as well as a (-) change.
'Change' refers to a percentage change in the metric from the last
completed test with results.
