AC Speed tests

Is there a PLN file that I can use to test the speed of various computers and AC versions? There used to be a template file supplied with archicad that could run on several versions but I haven't seen this for some time. I'd like to know how much faster my current machine is compared to the one I had when I was running AC 9 and 10. I can get some old files but current AC's don't always run them well.

Just curious - I can't even use all of the power I now have!

In the late 2008 I downloaded a .PLA file (260MB) from the australian user, for this purpose. You can download it from here:
