Roy Longbottom worked in the UK government's Central Computer Agency from 1960 to 1993, where he was required to perform a series of benchmarking and stress testing procedures on computers such as Livermore Loops, Linpack and Whetstone, collating the benchmark results from 1972 to 2022 and creating a web page comparing the advances in computer technology over the past 50 years

The 1978 Cray 1 supercomputer cost $7 million, weighed 10,500 pounds, and had a power supply of 115 kilowatts, making it the fastest computer of its time. The Raspberry Pi 1, a single-board computer introduced in 2012, costs just $70, weighs only a few ounces, and has a power supply of only 5 watts, but it's 4.5 times faster than the Cray 1. The 2020 Pi 400's Loops, Linpack, and Whetstone test results show that it's 78.8, 49.5, and 95.5 times faster than the Cray 1. The first PC processor to achieve the Cray 1 Livermore Loops score was the 1994 100 MHz Pentium. In 2021, Intel's 11th Gen Core i5 CPUs scored 117x, 131, and 134x faster than Cray 134 for Loops, Linpack, and Whetstone, respectively.
