http://www.cpureview.com tended to be handy.. I dunno if they still 
do the reviews of how fast their machines build the linux kernel.

I guess we could do a slightly unscientific test on this list.
How long does it take people to build a bog standard SCSI + one
network card 2.2 kernel? I know this is going to cause some
differences as far as modules go, but it should be close enough.

There are a few people with Dual Celeron BP6 boards...

build with 
time "make dep;make clean; make -j4 bzImage && make -j4 modules"

should work...
