Program in linux to do LOTS of math (takes long time to complete)

I'm running redhat 9.0. Anyone know of a program that just does lots of math or something, to take a long time, that could be used for testing on multiple computers?

Look up the fractal generator contest. Those use plenty of math and take a while for large N. I know that *my* entries were written in standard C, so portability shouldn't be a problem.
