I've never seen this benchmark before, thanks for reposting it. I couldn't resist doing the test, and the 50g using newRPL firmware gave the following results:

At 12 digit precision: (7.26 seconds for 1000 loops), performance index = 4681
At the default 32-digit precision: (12.23 seconds for 1000 loops), performance index = 2786

So it seems the Prime in this benchmark is about 2.6x faster than newRPL on the 50g at the same precision (let's not forget the CPU clock is 2x faster on the Prime).
This brings the 50g right below the Prime on that list.

I have an older 50g I don't use anymore. One of these days I will try newRPL on it :-)
Quite an interesting project!
