Amiga 4000 w/GVP 40MHz 040 = 1:10
Amiga 2000 w/PPI 33MHz Zeus = 1:43
Unfortunately, with the new speedier processors, this benchmark isn't
very effective because its not nearly complex enough to do them justice.
However, increasing the output resolution and enabling things like depth
of field would be a little more telling.
