I dont think Geekbench is a good cross-platform benchmark, given what it measures

Geekbench is the only consumer usable cross-platform benchmark. It matches SPEC differences between platforms

  • Does it test hardware, or hardware plus software that can be different on different platforms?

    • AFAIK it's mostly self-contained outside of basics like malloc. If you have any evidence to the contrary, post it.

    • What degree of OS-indepedence do you think is reasonable to expect from a consumer-facing benchmark suite like Geekbench?
