Cluster Benchmarks

Another beginner question.  What are some of the widely-used benchmarks for
MPI clusters?  I am running Scyld and would like to test out my cluster.(I
think the Scyld distro comes with some basic benchmarks like linpack, but
are there some others?)

Also, what are some programs that will really punish a cluster?  I would
like to see my nodes get really hammered, I can currently get about 65%
proc. usage, but I am just using the fractal renderer.

Thanks!
