HP ProLiant MicroServer Benchmarks
OK, as with my last server I used the nbench CPU benchmark which is pretty long in the tooth now, but as a comparison I ran it again:

I also re-ran the test on my other server:

As you can see, its about a third slower but it uses about 3 5ths the power of my last server, and is almost silent.
