Benchmarking a vCPU on an EC2 instance ?

I run a compute intensive multithreaded application on my laptop (i7-3610QM) and would like to find a way to bench mark the performance I am getting locally versus what I get on a given EC2 instance.

Is there a good benchmark to use when comparing a standard processor vs a vCPU ?
 
Benchmark the app you care about. Who cares how fast it encodes video if you're doing fluid dynamics?
 
Yea I tried that by keeping track of the estimated time to completion across the different systems but that was a bit inaccurate. I went ahead and ran CineBench since I was interested in pure compute power and the ability to limit threads used in the comparison.

Thanks for the response
