I asked Google AI, and it gave me the following answers:
<blockquote>time echo "scale=7000; 4*a(1)" | bc -l<br>
time dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=4096 2>/dev/null | sha256sum<br>
</blockquote>
Both gave almost identical results for both QEMU and VirtualBox.
Granted that they are pure "cpu", but I just want to compare. Man,
AI is good!<br>
<br>
Kernel compile is more comprehensive (cpu, ram, disk), but it takes
too long, and lot of things will skew the result.<br>

Try compressing a known large file with bzip2 or xz and compare?
