Why does your speed test actually need to be complex and time consuming?? If you are measuring speed, would it be practical and informative to use a loop to add a number to the X register (or if not the X register, some variable, since the stack/garbage cleanup functions on the 50g and 48gx would be an extra penalty that the 12c would not have to pay)?

I feel a simple loop would really tell you more about pure speed than a "complex" calculation. I submit a more complex calculation (e.g. one that used advanced internal functions - Like timing the sqrt(n) for n ranging from 1,000,000>n>1 ) would would need to be normalized according to each calculator's implementation of the "complex" functions. I could have misunderstood the question, also.
