I've heard rumors that Pixar used to be able to render their movies in real-time :)

I'd like to imagine that they use some old movie or short as a benchmark, that'd be neat to see the data on.

Definitely--lots of old assets are used for testing, I've seen them personally. It's standard practice to keep around old models, scenes, textures, etc.
