[LAG FIX/GPS] Can someone study this for us?

According to this link, the upcoming Epic 4G has an I/O benchmark that is much higher than Vibrant (and therefore the similarly handicapped Captivate and international and Bell Galaxy S i9000). I started wondering whether this is due to actual hardware differences, or if there have been tweaks incorporated into the firmware that are helping. Then I found an Epic 4G system dump here. I haven't personally downloaded the dump from that link, because even if I did, I wouldn't know how to find anything. Could someone with more ability study this dump and possibly learn something useful for us?
I have also heard reports that Epic 4G has a GPS that works well. This is less of an issue for me personally, as I am on JH2, and find my GPS adequate for the occassional use I have put it through. This is another area that might be worth looking at.
Edit:
alternate Epic 4G dump download location

Interesting to say the least. Wonder if they dumped RFS or if they just figured out how to optimize it. The hardware differences between the devices shouldn't be significant enough to show that big of an I/O difference.
Who knows, maybe this indicates that Samsung has an idea what's going on with the performance issues and will eventually filter it down to the SGSs variants

QFT .................

I am going to go ahead and download the system dump zip file for archiving purposes. I'll probably put it up at an alternate download location, once I have it.

I'm not 100% sure on this but I think the Epic's total internal memory is NAND (1GB) unlike the other phones that use an internal SD card. Much different memory transfer speeds.
Thats why the one lag fix works so well, it copies data/data to the internal NAND.

I am already running the gps fix from the dump(haven't tested it yet). There is no lag fix as far as I can tell. The epic gets 850+ in quadrant. If it had a lag fix it would get a lot higher score.

I believe derek4484 is right on the 1gig of NAND. I just checked it out on a review site.

Yeah doublechecked derek too... it appears it comes with 1GB ROM only, all other storage is via microSD.
False alarm =P Samsung didn't fix or optimize anything, they just used a cheaper, more shortsighted method to avoid having to give up their precious RFS

Those test results are questionable. You can click on the link under the graph and compare other phones. They have Droid X edging out SGS in linpack: SGS- high 7's; X- low 8's.

I dont think they are right either. If the phone had that fast of a file system it would kill in quadrant. The epic has been reported to only get 850+ in quadrant.

Unless you're actually running an epic, the GPS fixes out there only dump the GPS files, so it wouldn't do anything to indicate the speed of the actual Epic in terms of file system performance =P

why would they let sprint have the nicest version of the galaxy s ugh -___-

I know, I was commenting on sheps post =P He seems to be saying that using the gps fix from the epic would alter file system performance.

No I am saying people with epics have tested them with quadrant and are getting 850+. I cant see it getting so high scores from laptopmag.com under the file sytem benchmarks but only get 850+ in quadrant. laptopmag.com says the droid x file system benchmarks the same but it gets over 1200 in quadrant with slower cpu and gpu.

Unless youre comparing the same phone. Especially when one with lag vs one without it get the same score. Even though quadrant isn't the best thing to use you can still use it to show an improvement after a fix or a mod from the base number. So his question was why do the phones get the exact same score but one has lag.

Quadrant only tests throughput bandwidth not latency, etc. The internal NAND may be just as fast in terms of MB/s but it could have lower latency or other charecterists that Quadrant does not test.

ATTN Dev's: Benchmark Standardization

Benchmark standardization would help clear up "A vs B" fight's I've seen in a many threads. I am still working on a battery life bench but here's my proposed testing standards and what I've been doing:
Tests are run from a fresh flashed phone. Software is run as it is (no change in settings). All tests are run three times with a computed average. The phone must be rebooted after each test to clear any data from the RAM. (BTW this takes fffooorrreeevvveeerrrr)
Software used: An3DBench, FPS2D, Linpack, NBench, NenaMark1 and Neocore.
Example:
ROM X Kernel X
An3DBench=3355
FPS2D=28 dev3.5
Linpack=33
NBench=2.69/4.049/0.92
NenaMark1=14.8
Neocore=25.9
Feedback and input would be greatly appreciated, then hopefully an agreed upon standard.
*Admin's, where would you like benckmark results posted? I'm sitting on 8 so far using the above methods.

Don't forget Quadrant.

Benchmarks are fun and all but in the end all that matters is how your phone runs and feels. If your happy, well that's all that matters.

+1 on quadrant
For battery life you could do two tests. One by letting the phone sit idle for like a hour or two and another by playing a movie or something for thats like 30mins or hour long. only thing that sucks is that will take forever!
I'd be willing to test a rom just pm me with witch one you want me to do.

funny part is these numbers mean NOTHING in the end it how YOUR phone run is what matters

As a few dev's have stated,and I've been able to duplicate, Quadrant numbers are easily manipulated at the kernel level. That's the reason I didn't include it in my tests.

Yes and no. For example An3DBench, NenaMark1 and Neocore scores mean nothing if FPS2D shows you have a high deviation. A high deviation affects gameplay, video playback, video recording and ui smoothness. I've benched a number of roms and kernels and the ones with the lowest FPS2D deviations stutter less on all areas. It's been brought up many times that the soft side needs help. As a tech going all the way back to 386's and IIe's, I've found that tests like these show where things are good and where things can be improved.

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.
Regards,
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
Now lets get ta craka lackin on a 1.5 ghz update for our tabs

Overclocking will raise processor/RAM heat dissipation and thus might lead to a catastrophic failure. It would be great to have temperature sensor on the board or at least measure current consumption from the battery but it is not easy.

Of course im a pushin lol. Only way to achieve is to try. Course ive read about the tab proccessor being able to handle 1.4 stable and can handle 1.6... Not that id know about these things first hand. Just taking the words of better men.

Smartbench 2011 "BETA" - looking for some testers

Hi guys,
Since this group has been very receptive to Smartbench 2010, I'm hoping Smartbench 2011 will be accepted just as well.
I've been working on the new version of Smartbench for the past few weeks. This version is still BETA, so you won't find it in the Android Market yet.
Here's what's new:
- Dual-core processor support! (Ok, not relevant to you, but you can see how well Atrix and Optimus 2X performs on CPU intensive tests now... ). 'Pi', 'Mandelbrot' and 'String' tests now spawn 4 threads which are ran simultaneously. So on 1 core phone, each thread runs 4 times slower, dual-core phone will run each thread about twice as fast, etc. This also means, Smartbench 2011 is quad-core ready.
- Added "String Test". This test manipulates large strings and also performs some regular expressions.
- REMOVED File I/O tests. This test was somewhat inconsistent not just on Galaxy S phones but also on other phones. I don't think it's worth while to keep it.
- Auto-submission of results! At the end of the test run, all test scores are submitted to the server (well, assuming you have the internet connection).
- Result chart is now REAL-TIME! Watch the result chart grow in real-time when you re-visit the chart screen! Oh, for now, I am limiting the display of the results to 50 entries and this is based on 50 most popular device/configurations. Different clock speed counts as separate entries, and so does different Android versions.
- Donated users can see results without running the complete test first.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT compare 2011 results with 2010. They have different baselines and apps have been tuned differently. You WILL get lower Games Index scores because now it is base-lined on HTC G2 instead of Nexus One.
Here's the link to the latest BETA:
[Link removed]
As soon as you run the test, I will see results on my DB.
Please let me know if you find any issues. I'll try to get the final version up in the Market sometime this week.
Thanks much!
EDIT: Smartbench 2011 v0.7 has been released. It will now allow you to sort results by either Average, Productivity or Games scores. Please re-install this version.
EDIT2: Smartbench 2011 v0.8 has been released. It now offers a filtering option - you can see all results or just stock clock speed results. Mandelbrot test also has been extended for better precision. Again, please re-install this version.
EDIT3: I have just published Smartbench v1.0 in the Android Market - please install this version moving forward. Results submitted by the BETA version will no longer be stored in the server DB. Your support during the BETA period has been very helpful!

Tegra 2 is a dual core, and it is Cortex A9 based, so it should perform very well on CPU tasks. But as you can see Hummingbird is doing rather well on Gaming Index.
I've defined the correct name mapping for Epic now. It should show the human-friendly name on the chart.

Testing on ACS Frozen
Just tried out the 2011 version on ACS Syndicate frozen with their OC kernel. Ran the test with setcpu set to 200-1000 and conservative governor as well as 1000-1200 and performance governor. No FC or errors at either setting. Cool to see more new devices in comparison.

You are going to see FAR MORE devices to compare with Smartbench 2011 in the future. Imagine, there will be tens of thousands of results if not more. I just need to figure out a sensible way to display all that in some meaningful way.
I can see someone ran Evo Shift 4G and HTC Bee!

does it detect the actual clock speed, or does it just know its an OC kernel? Cause somebody in here is dragging down our scores!
How about uploading your score being optional? like if say, ridiculous example, someone was listening to pandora and ran the benchmark on a whim...

Best Before Date

my Atrix was flying before i had to send it in for warranty work a few weeks back. (digitizer) Antutu scores around 7000. the rest of the benchmark tests where pretty high also. When it was returned i immediately unlocked the bootloader and rooted it. Now my scores from Antutu are 4500 at best. I am using the exact same rom (Neutrino), and kernel (Faux123) as before. I have tried other roms (cm7 nightlies) reinstalled and full fastboot wipe many times but still the same outcome. The only difference i can see is that i used an different method to unlock the bootloader and root the second time around. Do you think the some of the permission where affected differently the second time around. Am i just overlooking something?

I have heard that refurbished phones USUALLY don't perform as well as the brand new ones do. Here is my example, a refurbished Atrix I read from some users can't even sometimes boot a custom kernel when the custom kernel is around 1.45 to 1.6. For example the one kernel that the dev clemsyn.

There is a "Boost.sh" script included with Neutrino (I believe in /system/etc) that Notorious recommends be run when you get that "not so fresh" feeling. It is a defrag tool that can be assigned to a widget and should be run every so often.
Also, you will want to see if "Nitrocharger.sh" in the same directory is running as Root at Boot. I have seen big improvements by implementing this.
Both of these scripts came with the ROM, so hopefully you have fast access to them. Good luck to you!

thanks for the info fellow xdaers,,,,,

Actually I had the opposite experience. My original phone wouldn't boot with the clemsyn kernel. My digitizer bombed and I received a refurbished unit from repairs. The new unit runs the clemsyn kernel just fine. So I guess it's just the luck of the draw...

As tob said, those "so verry little script" can makes big differences sometimes
I would like to add my personal toughts, for me, the ROM actually scoring higher and higher and feel a litle bit more freshier each week past within the ROM... so my thoughts would be, the cache partition, the more longer the rom is implemented, the more score you'll get cause the cache slowly become bigger and bigger giving you full power to open something tough!
As for the battery, from my experiences, you can't really judge a battery life while you just flashed a rom, you got to wait until the first week to see if there a big changes between the other ROM you came from ... so my guess would be, those scripts and the longer the ROM is implemented on your phone, the more fast and stable it will get, and you will feel the power slowly coming out again!
My bad if I'm completely wrong, but it is my guess!
Hood luck with your "new" phone

i brought up some old Antutu scores and notice that my ram. cpu integar and floating point scores are extremely low. i have tried multiple kernels but still no change. now i am even more confused......doesn't take much. could it be that my cpu is locked so i can not overclock. it kinda feels like its only utilizing one core.
