After seeing this question, I reminisced about how my old Amiga 2500/030 had a 68882 FPU unit. I recall that the Amiga's floating point routine library was smart enough to detect if you had an FPU or not and would automatically utilize it if available. If that was the case, you just got the benefit for free in any application that utilized the library.

That being said, I was always curious exactly how much performance benefit did it actually give. Are there any benchmarks or notable examples on the Amiga where this difference is visible? Any particular Amiga applications which greatly benefited from an FPU?
