Where is my MGFlops? - Fascinate General

Hi all!
It's not that I complain about phone slowness, but just out of curiosity...
I've seen Galaxy S Tab review and it stated that tester was constantly pulling 14 MGFlops in Linpack. Tab has same CPU as Fascinate.
What is strange is that on my phone I'm always around 8 MGFlops. Stock, minimum of applications, just after reboot.
So, I wonder where is the other half?

Tab has froyo. Whick is faster. And you have eclair on you fascinate. MFLOPS =millions of floating linear operations per seconds

Oh, OK. I guess I missed this point somehow... That makes sense now.

Whats the fastest custom rom?

yeah whats everyones fastest most stable combination?mine so far would be nfinitefx45 deoxed stock rom with a 768 overclocked kernal.and the new CyanogenMod-6 rc is pretty fast!with the uncapped kernal
Cyanogen 6 with dec s uncapped kernel clocked to 768. Using battery tweak, juice defender, jit enabled, surface dithering disabled, home locked in memory. I get about 420 on quadrant and around 5.2 mflops

i recently installed cyanogen 6 with the google addon.
What is the " with dec s uncapped kernel clocked to 768. Using battery tweak, juice defender, jit enabled, surface dithering disabled, home locked in memory" you are refering to?
I currently use set cpu to overclock to 691. I currently am only getting just under 3 mflops and just under 400 on quadrant.

Decad3nce has an uncapped Kernel - the stock cm6 one is capped so users with older chips (without the "With Google" branding) can boot.
Battery Tweak by Dec and Collin_Ph improves battery life by installing a small user defined service (I can't remember what exactly it does)
Juice defender is an app in the market that controls battery use of apps.
JIT - "Just In Time" compiling - very techy stuff here but more or less gives you more MFLOPS - but our Heros dont have enough ram for it to truely be effective.
Surface Dithering is a CM6 option that makes the screen look better. Google the term and see what it does for photos and stuff.
Home Locked in memory keeps the OS from flushing it from cache and causing a few issues, like hitting the home button and all the screens being blank for a second while it populates them.
So the above statement is just his lits of configs that make the device run best for him. But remember MFLOPs and Quadrants aren't everything Alot of it is feel.
Wow that was nice and detailed explanation. I'd up vote it if I could.
I haven't used the uncalled kernal. I have with google branding. I think I'll try it anyway.
Cm6 fresh install seems faster than any other rom I've ever tried. I turn off eye candy and it flies

I gave up using Fresh ROM because it was getting laggy and we haven't had an update since August, so I finally made the switch to Cyanogen's RC1. Overclocked to 768 mhz, I've been getting 438 consistently on Quadrant. Linpack has been giving me varying results around 3 MFLOPS. The best I've gotten was 3.25.
I'm really curious as to how other Heroes do!

Benchmark mystery...

Hey folks, I'm Electrofreak from over at the Epic 4G forums. I'm one of our hardware nuts over there (no, really, I'm not kidding) and I'm trying to solve a little mystery.
As many of you may know, the Quadrant benchmark heavily favors Snapdragon CPUs and also badly skews I/O scores on Samsung's RFS file system. In short, it gives Galaxy S phones a bad score despite their cutting-edge performance.
Since I'm always blathering on about hardware, a friend of mine at work asked me to recommend him an Android replacement for his WinMo phone on Verizon. I explained that the Samsung hardware outperforms what the Droids currently offer (excepting the CPU in the Droid 2 Global) even if software updates have been few and far between.
So he went and bought a Fascinate, and since I've recently been advocating testing a new benchmark application, Smartbench 2010 on the Epic 4G, I had him download and benchmark his stock Fascinate.
The result was pretty dismal; where a stock Epic 4G on Eclair gets a Productivity Index (CPU) score of about 700 and a Gaming Index (GPU) score of about 2400, he was getting like 300 and 500... at most. The I/O test was taking forever, so we rebooted the phone, cleared running apps, and ran the benchmark a couple more times, with the result being the same each time. The CPU and GPU portions of the test actually seemed to complete fairly quickly however, and there wasn't any real appreciative difference in overall performance between our phones when slinging through application menus or using the phone in general. (And damn, while I like having my Epic's keyboard, the Fascinate is so freakin' thin!)
Now, on the Epic 4G forums, we've tested this benchmark app on RFS and EXT4 file systems and the difference has been minimal (usually slightly in favor of EXT4). So I'm pretty sure it's not the RFS file system to blame unless there's something wrong.
Anyone else willing to download Smartbench 2010 from the Android Market (it's free, and designed by the folks at SmartphoneBenchmarks.com) and give it a shot on your Fascinate? I need to find out if it's the app or the phone that's to blame.
In advance, many thanks!

Awesome, thanks for the scores guys! I'm guessing rqdxrocket's score was stock? It's looking more and more like something is wrong with my friend's NAND chip on his Fascinate. (See EDIT.) Maybe we'll drop a custom ROM on it and see how it fares. I'll also run some catlogs to see if it's got bad blocks.
Worst case scenario we'll flash it back to stock and bring it in for replacement. My friend is having a rough time of it; got his Fascinate and then right after someone changed lanes into him and screwed up his car. Now on top of that to have a high-end smartphone producing scores that would make an HTC Hero hang its head in shame has gotta be tough to bear.

Yep, something after a reboot is causing a drastic plummet in scores. I've actually pointed the author of the Smartbench 2010 application to this thread, so maybe he'll know what's causing this to happen.
How soon after a reboot are people waiting to run the test? I've noticed that if I try to do much of anything before media scanner runs 2-3 times (or however many it is), things seem to run very slow.

Quadrant scores

Ok so ive rooted this toy, flashed the 1.2ghz kernal and ran quadrant on it. I hit anywhere from 1080 to 1180. Have setcpu on demand at 800 min and 1200 max so why on earth is my rooted nook color running android 2.1 and a flashed 1100mhz kernal hitting wayyyy higher scores? (Around 1280) doesnt seem logical at all. Specially cause this is an actual tablet and thats just a rooted e reader. Did I do something wrong?

Quadrant is a bad benchmark. It weights i/o far too heavily.
The Tabs RFS filesystems bring its Quadrant score way below where it should be, though in actual use it's very fast.
If you move to EXT4, your Quadrant scores will shoot up by around 80%.
Regards,
Dave
O sweet love of mary. 80% you say. Ok ive seen some posts redarding this ext4 thingymabob. Ill check it out. So if im understanding you correctly by changing to this my tab will perform even better than it does now? Or ill just see a genaric increase on this quadrant test that really means nothing? Sorry im noobish lol
Sent from my SCH-I800 using XDA App
Well, my tab is currently on ext4 and my quadrant scores completely destroys my rfs score taken earlier.
However, that said, i don't really feel any performance improvements except the satisfaction knowing that my toy is now on an open and faster file system as opposed to a propriatory and slower one ;-)

Quadrant scores aren't as accurate as people think you know...
Sent from zombie infested Gingerbread.
There's an app called OCLF that will transparently add an EXT4 area on the RFS filesystem without needing to convert the whole thing to EXT4, giving you EXT4 IO performance in an easily installable and reversible way. Probably your best choice for trying it out. Otherwise, for the complete conversion, you could try this Modaco ROM/Kernel, which includes a complete conversion to EXT4.
As far as performance differences go, it makes a huge (10x) difference to the Quadrant IO score (measured before and after figures), but no measurable difference to actual performance (measured real-world usage figures). Some people claim to notice a subjective difference, but I never did.
Im using the modaco rom and kernel with ext4.
And it does make a huge difference. I get around 1800 in quadrant now.

hi,
please be aware that the modaco kernel (rfs/ext4) will not work on CDMA Tabs.
from modaco kernel thread
This kernel is ONLY tested on a UK Galaxy Tab. It MAY work on other GSM Tabs, it almost certainly WON'T work on a CDMA Tab. If you have a non UK Tab and want to test (and know how to flash back to a regular version), then go ahead and report your results. At your own risk.

That's the point!
It makes a huge difference in Quadrant, which is a synthetic benchmark, but far, far less difference in real world usage - hence it is a crap benchmark!
Pre-EXT4 my Tab would pull around 1000 in Quadrant, whereas my Desire HD would pull around 1800. However in real usage, they seem to perform pretty much the same which is not too surprising as they are similarly specified. On EXT4, my Tab pulls around 1800 now, but still performs much like my DHD.
I so wish people would stop bandying about Quadrant scores because they are meaningless.
Regards,
Dave
If you look at the scores in quadrant , they are split by colour so you can see how good the graphics capabilities are for example and compare to other phones. The colour codes are at the bottom of quadrant by the way
Linpack is a better benchmark. Not perfect, but better
Not really - Linpack only tests floating point performance.

Dave
Wow, I started a heated discussion lol. Well ive downloaded the one click lag fix but have not applied the ext2 tools as yet. Want to do more reading about it first. Obviously I want my yab to be the best it can be but I surely dont want to make it genericly better at the expence of my video grafix as one user said he suffered in that thread.

Taking Quadrant scores aside, when I made the switch from CF-Root to the Ext4 MCK, I really did notice a huge improvement in real world usage. I'm not sure if it is really because of the change in file system, but nevertheless thats the only big thing present in that kernel aside from CWM.
Everything said make sense and seems to be valid but let me share my experience.
I have Samsung Galaxy Vibrant and T-mobile Tab. Now both are using EXT4 file system and have fully functional recovery allowing for flashing straight from the phone.
Both now have Quanrant score around 1700-1800 and run very smothly.
Is I/O speed important? I think it is very important because task switching requires reading of huge chuncks of memory. Until read operation completed the user is essencially suspended. Multitasking is the major distinction of Android and lags associated with the tasks switching might be the most noticeable issue since its used so much. Converting of the RFS file system to EXT4 practically reduced lags to unnoticeable level. I don't need any better.
Another critical area for I/O is playing video and especially capturing HD video. The latter works only if I set internal storage and shut down all tasks.
This is work in progress but it seems it reached level of usability when most critical bugs eliminated.
It should be noted that the Tab is flashed with Rotohammer KM2 v1 ROM and Paul Obrien's kernel on a top. The kernel contains scripts converting the file system and flashing recovery. This combination works well, no issues so far.
Well I decided to give it a try and after install my quadrant is 2556 and linpack is 16.865 mflops at 1200mhz. Good scores but just numbers. I do however believe im seeing a bit of snap that I didnt have before when accessing my library. Still really unsure if this is a good thing as im not sure if I can use apps to sd anymore so I may uninstall at some point in the future but thanks to all you who helped the old man out. Atm im quite happy

So I was running Salvage and now I'm running cm7 nightly 18 and I'm wondering: what's up with my benchmarking being so low? Can't seem to break 41 on Linpack and my quadrant scores are sticking in the low-1000s (they were up around 1300 on a fresh install).
I've seen other people who have had this complaint, and I know benchmarks aren't that important since my phone is running really well, but I want to see some seriously awesome results and I'm wondering if it has something to do with my kernel (savaged-zen), too many widgets on my hoam screen, playing too much ninjump, etc.

Yeah I'm thinking it might start coming to that. I just don't want to be sacrificing performance thanks to having things set up wrong. I'm coming from a Hero where your paltry 4.5 mflops were a true sign that you had your phone organized correctly, and it was going to randomly restart in 8 minutes because you had JIT running.

With the evo I don't recommend taking stock in scores because its just not gonna get any better. My chicks g2 out the box stock(800mhz) is 1550 on quads and like 60 on linpack lol of course w/ help of their newer processors. Our evos are kind of maxed out I guess you could say. Jit doesn't help much its only keeping our apps warm and ready not really effecting scores much. I'd say what were getting now is about the best man. I still love my evo and hopefully it will last until my upgrade this September when newer phones are out.

Man I was planning on upgrading in May but I got bit by the Sprint Premium downgrade, and all the sudden my upgrade turned into "use it or lose it" by April 1. I'd much rather be stuck with the EVO for 2 years than the Hero for another year. That poor little phone just doesn't cut it anymore. Right now I'm trying to figure out how I can get a full upgrade next year, or perhaps just get a new phone for Christmas, which is about the time I'll be sick of the EVO.
Still, for now I'm loving this thing. It's like going from an '88 Accord to a 2010 Cadillac.

Atrix quadrant scores

Hello everyone. What's a good quadrant score for a stock 860? I have been seeing 2600-2650 on average, is this fairly common for this model? Is there a good way to prepare to take the test by closing apps, features etc?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
Ive been averaging consistent 2500 of four attempts in quadrant after the 4.1.57 update. I normally run it just after start up and I get those scores.
I achieved 2740 with 4.1.57
I've gotten around 2900 once, but it usually falls between 2650 and 2800. To be fair though Quadrant only tests a single core, if you compare it vs say an inspire on stock rom (Or probably even a custom) at stock clocks it will only get about 1900-2100. So really the Atrix gets 20%-30% better scores and it's only using 1 of 2 cores. Another thing you'd notice on the Atrix is it has nearly no slowdowns, even an Inspire running at a 1.8 OC (battery life is horrible) will bog when you install/update programs while doing something else because it's still a single core and needs to share cycles across programs where the Atrix can devote a core to all background activities and the other to what you're doing in the foreground. I didn't really notice how fast the Atrix was until I had to fix something on my girlfriends Captivate (Gave her mine when I upgraded) and she has like 25 apps and a custom rom with a 1.4 OC and OMG it felt so slow compared to my Atrix.
I got a 2774 with the gingerblur ROM. That's the best I've ever gotten and I've run it on stock, 1.52, the new update and gingerblur. Gingerblur has gotten me, by far the highest and most consistent scores of all. I usually run between 2600-2750 under normal usage, which is quite a bit.

smartbench 2011 it said to support dual core. Have any of you run that app to see what kind of scores you get? On quadrant I get around 2400-2500.
With Smart bench I get around 2900 on productivity and around 2400 on game index

That's about what I get, it's also funny (although not surprisingly) the single cores get obliterated except for a galaxy S because the GPU in those are amazing.

I saw an Atrix running 2.3.3 in that listing. How is that possible? Faking the OS or something?

No, you have to register in that listing. So Maybe he has registered false data. You only have to proof it with a screenshot when you are in the top 20.
i usually hit 2600-2800 on gingerblur but have hit 3000 before.
i got 2449 here
I average 2900 or so lately though I've been hitting 3000+ consistently. Im running rooted 4.1.57 pushing cpu to a constant 1ghz with setcpu. Hopefully once they get over clock we'll be on par with the xoom

I've gotten around 2900 once, but it usually falls between 2650 and 2800. To be fair though Quadrant only tests a single core, if you compare it vs say an inspire on stock rom (Or probably even a custom) at stock clocks it will only get about 1900-2100. So really the Atrix gets 20%-30% better scores and it's only using 1 of 2 cores.

1-what kernel were you using when this 'bog' down happened at 1.8 ghz when something was updating. cause my inspire at 1.8 ghz while downloading a file through web, and updating apps in the market will still be faster than the atrix. ive NEVER even had so much as a hiccup at 1.8 ghz on my kernel, and i just did exactly that, downloaded a file, while 4 apps were updating in the market, and at the same time opened app to qr, and the apps loaded instantly. the atrix takes a few seconds for it to load up, with nothing at all going on, with all bloat removed and only the factory default apps on it. the inspire has over 100. also, i posted this elsewhere also, testing my kernel yesterday running at 1804 mhz all day long, i got over 16 hours off a charge with 3.5 hours screen on time. screen brightness was at 100%. if it was at 50 it could have went much longer. not horrible if you ask me. the inspire with a single core doesnt lag when a live wallpaper is put on it, and i can actually type on the keyboard without having to correct errors every other word cause its lags so bad.
just another note, my inspire rom and kernel at default 1ghz (no overclock) hit 2700+ quadrant
I just got 4000 on CM7
4900 with cm7 + overclock to 1.3ghz ;P
the motoblur software and at&t crap really slows stuff down.
