Here are some preliminary armv5tel vs armv6hl Raspberry Pi benchmarks performed by Jordan Cwang 2012-12-12 - 2012-12-19.

Tests were performed using the released F17 remix (armv5tel) and the F17 test image (armv6hl) running on identical 512MB Pi, with the same type of SD card, partitioning, network connection (private LAN to test host), and running services. The kernel was compiled for armv5 and the same on both systems. More benchmarks to follow...

Summary

ApacheBench seconds lower -n 2000 -c 10 (against static page on Pi) 139.787 174.240 -25% Repeatable. Iteration value (2000) is high enough to moot caching issues. More investigation required.
