Phoronix.com benchmarked btrfs early last year. You can google their article on this to see what tools they used.
Over the weekend I installed Ubuntu Maverick Beta with BTRFS as / (with /boot on an ext3 partition). Maybe it's just me, but install seemed to take longer than installing with root on ext3/ext4. Ang bad trip lang, the rescue option of the installer cd (I a prefer using an alternate install cd rather than a live cd) doesn't include pa the BTRFS kernel module, so when I had a problem on the first install, I had to do a re-install. :( Oh, and if you do get the chance to do your own benchmarking, let us know the results.
