Re:Alternative to Timing[10000!] benchmark

On a HP9000/735 I get the following:

In[2]:= start=AbsoluteTime[];Print[Short[10000!]];AbsoluteTime[]-start
28462596809170545189064132121198688<<35606>>0000000000000000000

Out[2]= 38.721093

In[3]:= Timing[Do[Gamma[1.1],{100000}]]

Out[3]= {5.26 Second, Null}

Run on a raw kernel, without front end.
