Mistake in caculating Benchmark Average

There is a basic principal that you cannot average averages. The overall result for the benchmark should be calculated by dviding the sum of the target results by the sum of the baseline results. This is not the same as dividing the sum of the index results by 6. Changing the way this is calculated will give a more mathematically valid way of comparing performance from one host to the other.
