Just run it? Python Lib/test/pystone.py, or alternatively python -c 'from test.pystone import *; main()'. You should probably run pystone several times and report the best version (highest pystones/second value). What I'd like to see is the pystone results from both an intel and gcc compiled version of python from the same python sources and on the same machine.
