[Q] why is the Archos 70IT so slow on Quandrant "planet" test? - Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
Just run a few times quadrant and even tho the overall 3D score is fine, I wonder why the "planet" bench is so slow on archos tabs?
I have about 10 fps where my HTC desire with a weaker GPU does 40! Other 3D tests are faster than my desire, but this "planet" test...
Do you have the same poor score? Would it be a kernel/driver issue? I was expecting better performances from the GPU. But it's only a bench, and games are running smoothly anyway

I've the same poor score, but it's normal.
The planet test seems to be incompatible to the Archos.
The GPU is very good, like you can see in the other tests.

What is the point pursuing High Quadrant score?

I am wondering what is the point of just pursuing higher Quadrant score?
Ok, you got a high quadrant score, does it mean your phone is running better?
Better has different aspects:
stability
speed
battery consumption
usability
so, come on guys, please stop pursuing higher score blindly!
I always see people posting how hight their quadrant score were, but not mentioning if their phone were working better with that high scores.

The point of going for a high quadrant score is speed & response, the higher quadrant is the higher the response and speed of the OS will be ,cause if you check in quadrant it checks CPU/RAM/3D/2D/I/O.
The 3D,2D and RAM doesnt change between OS's but CPU and I/O does,because I/O is the "Input / Output" that if it is higher,the OS will work alot smoother nevertheless because its clean and simple just how it was ment to be.
Also 2.1 and 2.2 does make a diference,i mean read about the diferences and they say the 2.2 can be between 100% to 500% faster,and if you check stock 2.1's 500 compared to stock 2.2's 1400,you get around 280% more speed.
Battery Consumption / Stability : It has nothing to do with Q's scores,thats more of the OS configuration and CPU Scaling.
Just try it out yourself : Use Normal SE 0.24 and do Q ,youll get around 500 or so,and you will notice the OS is very laggy even without a live wallpaper.
Now go for FreeX10 2.2 and do Q,youll get around 1400 and it will work awesomely fast even WITH a live wallpaper.
So in one brief description : The higher Q's score is,the better the device's Hardware interacts with its Software giving you smoother and faster usability of it,and stability + battery consumption is something totally diferent that if they dont work as they should,can be fixed by modifying the OS and its settings.
Edit : Thats why we are after high Q's scores rather than Linpack scores,Linpack only tests CPU speed by using the language defined in the OS (JIT etc)and even if it would be 120 would be useless if the I/O is rubbish.
So yeah,Q's score marks a diference.

Streaks CPU Performance vs. Iphone 4

Hi,
from the Streak's wiki page I know that we have a 1 GHZ cpu and a decent gpu in the Streak. The Iphone 4 also has a 1 GHZ cpu. Assuming that the Iphone's hardware is a little more upmarket than the Streak's I'm still completely confused why the Iphone (even the old 3GS) plays Epic Citadel ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GvSckim3GzI ) at a high framerate whereas my Streak can't even play Dungeon Defenders (an Unreal 3 engine based game) at an acceptable framerate.
I am running froyo 2.2.2 and I'm getting 1200 points in the Quadrant test.
Comparing the Epic Citadel demo with the Streak stuttering at some older gameloft titles I wonder how much faster the Iphone really is ? Seems the Iphone has several times the power of a Streak or Nexus or Desire etc...
How come ?
Also: Is it normal that more demanding games like Dungeon Defenders have terrible performance on the Streak ?
Are you on a stock rom? which one
I'd prob be a bit faster on streakdroid + OC
You are talking about 2 different platforms.
I do not play games so cannot really answer you question but dont go with the quadrant numbers.
I'm on stock 2.2.2 but according to other peoples quadrant score custom roms aren't much faster.
I mean the epic citadel demo features almost next gen graphics wheras the Streak (and probably any non dualcore android phone) offers playstation 1 (maybe 2) like 3d performance.
Just wondering how the iphone achieves that. Especially as the citadel demo also runs on the old iphone 3gs which only has a 600mhz cpu.
I guess the citadel demo is somehow tweaked in the highest possible way. The android smartphones are not that optimized for specific applications because it's a more open platform.
powervrs tend to be a bit faster then adrenos
the iphone 3gs uses a SGX535 i believe?
the s5 uses an adreno 200
powervr chips have always been faster then adreno in 3d/gpu
streakdroid averages 1600 in quad and can go up to 2600 with perfmod (though the latter doesnt do as much as the former)
more importantly you can oc the cpu to 1.1ghz and possibly higher in the future, seeing as snapdragon is an SoC the gpu might be tied to the cpu's clockrate and ocing might improve it a bit.
If the whole thing is gpu bound it doesnt really matter how fast/slow the cpu is (unless it reverses back to being cpu bound)
if you want a more fair comparison try something like the galaxy s (1) it uses the sgx535 i believe
It could be a driver issue as the s5 isnt exactly the best in the case of drivers, you could also compare it to other snapdragon 8x50 chips like in the nexus 1 or htc desire

my streaks quadrant score is between 1900 and 2200 dependent on how it feels at the time
the custom roms are a lot faster then what dell has to offer
Stock roms are slower since they have a lot of hardware acceleration turned off, some can be reenabled by editing build.props and some require a custom kernel (like in streakdroid)
Half the real work on streakdroid is irking out every performence tweak that dj_steve and fards knows of, but not all of them are stable so they become optional (like perfmod)
After downloading dungeon defenders and poking around on title screen/opening lvl thing it seems acceptly fast if you turn down resolution,
i cant find how to turn on fps counter though
But isn't there a 60fps cap in the stock rom. So you can't really compare it to custom roms...
Fps cap doesnt matter if you're not even hitting it, I'm pretty sure even with res turned down it's still only running at mabye ~30 fps?

[Q] qudrant for touchpad!!!

just my observation: Quadrant run for touchpad only gives score of around 2400... my nook color with 1.3ghz single core gives score of over 2600 all the time!!! i looked into the device info, it seems like it only using 1 core!!! does cm7 only recognizing one core??? what r ur guys thought??? is there a fix for it or any kernels that utilize both cores of touchpad!!!
The Quadrant results on the TP are skewed because the GPU code has not yet been implemented (or optimized) which primarily affects the FPS section (looks like is is only doing about 4 frames per second) where all the other graphics demos (especially the planet one) do 20-60 frames per second which is a 300%-600% improvement over the Nook Color running 1.2GHz.
I would be interested in other benchmarks that are not dependent on the GPU code.
try using Antutu - free from market
it separates the scores according to each test
(also shows total)
i got around 5000 - OC 1.7 ghz
Maybe it is because we are running an un-optimized alpha build...Don't worry about synthetic benchmarks anyway.
Both cores are already being used, what is your processor clocked too?
I'm completely aware benchmarks don't really mean much, but for curiosities sake, out of 3 runs, I averaged 3228 in quadrant. I am overclocked to 1782mhz ondemand.
I suggest you run SunSpider also.

[Q] Is my Tf201 defective ?

I just ran a passmark benchmark on it and the 3d performance is horrendous it's half the performance of a normal prime even lower than an lg optimus 2x
Are you in performance mode? Also, some apps might not work correctly with the newer quad core chip. Try Antutu Benchmark, it works great for me.

Use antutu. IMO, that's the most accuracy benchermarker yaknawatimean brah? Joking aside, I've noticed that we got a 12 core gpu so it should all be good mebbe just a bad test.
Sent from my tf9001 with XDA XD.

Poor 3D Performance

Just got this phone, rooted, but still on ICS.
Ran an AnTuTu Benchmark and 3d performance was only getting 6fps... score ~2000.
I've tried a couple games as well... some lagged... Need for Speed was unplayable.
Is 3d performance just bad on this phone or is it just me?
You can only expect so much with this dualcore device man

Lol... 3d is handled by the gpu...the cpu just runs the other calculations needed.
Gpu is a bit "sub par" compared to the international version.
