I know some people don't believe in benchmarks for Android, so take it for what it's worth. To me, the results have been somewhat on point, in terms of the speed of the ROM. I will be updating this as more ROMs come out, but if anyone wants another ROM tested, just let me know.
About the benchmarks...
- All test were done after a clean flash of the ROM.
- ROM was never signed into Google.
- Only apps installed were Advanced Task Manager, SetCPU and Swapper(and benchmark apps).
- All test were done while in Airplane Mode(to cut down on background network activity).
- Ended all processes before running each test.
- Alls ROMs(except the Hero ROMs) had Swap/Compcache disabled and CPU set at 384min/528max.
- Hero ROMs were set with 96MB swap and CPU set at 384min/528max.
- The results here are from the best of 5 runs. I did not want to take the average because there were some inconsistent results that would have thrown it off.
Lower = Faster only for the first test.

It really doesnt take that long. Just flash the new test ROM, batch install a few apps, run the test, then nandroid back to my everyday ROM.

Is faster lower on all 3 tests or just on the first one?

Just the first one is lower=faster.

I was thinking about either me or someone else starting a test to compare all the ROMs. This way people can just look and compare to see what ROM they want, whether it be for performance, battery, ect. I was think about creating something like the attached table on how to compare the ROMs and was wondering would this cover everything? And would anyone like to help?
additional details on test:
The ROMs will have nothing installed them except SETCPU
All ROMs will be using sense except CM6
ROMS that have preset profiles can will be used e.g. DC battery profile during the battery test, but this will also be noted in additional details

If you do, share your results with ROM Watch, it'd be a good matrix to include somewhere, especially if you do a "what works/what doesn't" thing.

Yea I have a section on the spread sheet that contains features that work. All I have under it so far is Camera, 4G, Bluetooth. But will put more columns on if anyone has any suggestions.
I believe they are all going to be pretty much similiar for the moment. CM6 might be the most different since it is built from the ground up while the other ones are all built on the same thing.
Is anyone interested in helping me test some of the ROMs?
Hey everyone-
I'm asking for help from anyone who's willing to. I don't care if it's not normal for "devs" to ask everyone else for help, this is a community and we thrive on helping one another (by the way, I'm no dev).
Here's my situation: I have the next SkinnyEvo rom ready to be released. It's awesome. The only thing holding me back is a 'flickering' of system animations.
I've attached pictures so you can see what I'm talking about - notice the horizontal lines in the battery status when it's charging, or the downloading icon when using the market. It also happens when typing, scrolling text (like music), the launcher, and even some widgets when simply sitting on the homescreen.
From what I've been able to find, this 'flickering' issue used to be common back before I was involved with the HD2. It may seem like a small issue, but after a day of glitchy animations, you'll go crazy.
I've tried different kernels (only hastarins) and many other things.. but I would like to open it up to other suggestions so we can get this rom released! If you would like the rom "as is" to troubleshoot on your own, PM me and I will provide a link for you.
Thanks a bunch!

Thanks cedesmith, I'll give that a try.

What he said. He was way faster than me
Well thanks to you both then. That did the trick Much appreciated!
i think i have a problem.
i can only get a max of 1800 points in quadrant standard with revolution hd rom and setcpu with autodemand 245-1228.
why is this happening? i've done a factory default and the same.
Don't pay attention to these benchmarks... they tell you nothing. And noting wrong with that score, it's high enough, upgrading to ARHD 3.x might help.
If you are dumb enough to rate a phones performance on such bad benchmarks then..
Turn setCPU to performance
Restart your phone and kill all apps with task killer
Turn off sync/wifi
and update your rom maybe..
AR 2.0.11? AR 3.3 is already out...
quadrant scored really doesn't say a lot for the ROMS. you may have high 2000s scores but your battery lasts only have a day.. doesn't really means a thing
For me it was difficult to get consistent results with Quadrant.
Upgrading the app changed results dramatically.
You can run a benchmark now, and again in 5 minutes time and the results can be way different.
It was great at first but frustrating after a while.
For example: (on stock rom)
Original (2053)

Then I updated the app (1773)
Then 12 minutes later (1813)
Obviously many factors are involved but as Foladko and Baste07 suggest - I wouldn't pay too much attention. It's not as cut and dry as for example overclocking a desktop PC.
i have just taken the plunge into cyanogen because of the OTA updates and with 7.0.3.1 they have fixed the GPS. this is a hugely important feature for me as I use gps to track my training logs on SportyPal. The gps works, but not great, and not as quickly as it did in sense and this affects the accuracy of recorded speed and distance.
I am wondering if there is a way to change the polling rate somewhere in the settings of cyanogen?
the examples i can offer are
sense polling - about 3-5secs apart

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
cyanogen polling - about 30sec to 1 min apart
these were taken only one day apart and the only difference is cyanogen.
thanks for any help!
You could try a different gps driver like this one and see if it polls more often? As far as I know, there is no way to currently configure the polling time.

Liking this so far, practically an instant lock.

THIS!!! man this worked great, thanks so much! i'm now completely sold on cyanogen!
Yeah I sent a PM to the guy suggesting he try to merge these drivers into cyanogen.

This should be in the same level of Galaxy S6/Note 5
Please share yours...
No interest here? Such a bummer. I was hoping to see 2.3-2.5K from those with custom ROM.
^_^
I ran this benchmark and scored worse than you running the ROM, kernel, tweaks, etc. all listed in my signature, so I decided to not even post them. I then tried running with performance governors on both clusters and the phone hotplugged the Big cluster before the benchmark was complete, ending up with even worse scores.

Interesting, it could be the result of throttling. I usually run mine after idling it for a while. If I run it more than once, it will drop to 1600-1700-ish.
Thanks for sharing your experience.

Something is eating up resources, Mem and Web are really low. Close all apps and kill background services. N has about 200-300 better score than M.
Thanks for sharing your experience.
