just ran a Linpack on my atrix and i got:
MFLOPS: 37.193
i was just courious was everyone else is getting on theres to see if there is much of a differance.
I ran it 5 times and got anywhere from 32.5 - 37.
Looking at the "top" results, it seems most are a result of overclocking.

So I flashed Skyraider today, and my quadrant score dropped 100 points from stock sense. What the hell is going on here....

Sitting at 1032. With the stock ROM, I was getting around 1120.
Why are these scores so low???
Q scores || ROMs
Quadrant scores vary by ROM and kernel, and by different kernels in the same ROM.
Those scores are expected to vary.
Quadrant scores, don't take those to heart... It's all about feel. I've run roms where they might score low, but feel and move quick.

I just don't understand how some of these guys have anywhere from 2700-3300 as their quad score. I would imagine their phones are running insanely fast
Maybe, they are most likely overclocking. Some phones don't like going too high. Like on mine, I can't go over 1.113, or my phone slows to a crawl and locks up/reboots.

Where have you seen people post these scores for their Inc?
I'm willing to bet good money that if you are seeing people post scores that high, they are either:
A. Not running Quadrant from an Inc but a much more powerful device (like an Android tablet)
B. Faking the results in Photoshop (or just lying about the number if no screenshot is provided)
C. Running a setup that doesn't actually run through the Quadrant test properly. For example, Quadrant didn't run properly on Gingerbread roms at first, and the scores that it would produce were extremely erratic. Sometimes they would be extremely low, sometimes they would be extremely high, but they weren't accurate or repeatable.
D. Running some sort of insane setup that is only stable enough to finish a Quadrant run, and will never actually be used for anything
Frankly, even D is far-fetched.
I would be inclined to call a 100 point fluctuation in Quadrant scores insignificant.
If you really want to chase the highest benchmark scores, you'll need to overclock your CPU and run the system as lean as possible. That means uninstalling or disabling a lot of the things that make your life easier day-to-day.
Also, in case you haven't already seen it in your own testing, Quadrant scores are always lowest on the first run. If you press the back button and immediately start a new Quadrant run, you'll get a much higher score.
Like any unit of measurement, Quadrant scores do serve a useful purpose. But as is often the case when the score itself is seen by some as the end-goal, it is often misapplied.
The same can be seen in digital cameras and the megapixel arms race. Everyone wants to brag about how many megapixels their camera is capable of. Everyone wants the highest number of megapixels, assuming that more MP = better image. Few people realize what it actually means, or why it matters very little these days.
A lot of those people are overclocking to get really high scores and for all the reasons listed above (nice post!).
You really should not be looking to get that high on the incredible, you'll end up draining your battery like crazy. Around the 1,000 mark is great for playing higher-end games on the market as long as you aren't running a bunch of things in the background. Just about anything else you can think up of doing on your phone should run well, you won't have a sluggish device and you won't be killing your battery either.
If you do end up trying to overclock your phone or using a ROM or kernel combination that will give you a much higher score I don't think you'll notice any difference when doing anything on your phone, but your battery will drop much quicker.
Like other people have said, Quad scores don't matter much- take them lightly as you see them.
There is a lot that goes into that score. The highest score I could get today is 1656 but it was consistently in the Upper 1500s, I ran 5 tests.
My setup:
CM7 RC2
Incredikernel 03/06 OC to 1113Mhz/Performance Govenor
16Gb Class 2 microSD card.
If someone is using a class 4 or a class 6 card their i/o scores could be much higher than mine which would result in a much higher overall score than mine. Also keep in mind with Linux Kernels can very alot and that there are different types of task schedulers in them such as BFS or CFS which can have dramatic affect on the quadrent scores. Quadrent tends to score BFS kernels higher. So yeah I can believe people are hitting most of the score they post up. However byrong is right about it not being a setup you'd want to use on a daily basis. For me it causes random reboots, my phone gets hot and the UI becomes laggy after a little while also the battery drops like a brick.
My normal setup that I run on a daily basis is the same kernel uc to 803Mhz/smartass governor. It is extremely stable and is smooth as butter but my quadrent scores are only only in the 1100s with my high being 1244.
Its really not all about the score, if your happy with the performance who cares about the score.
I know about the differences in benchmarks and how they arent set up for dual core, but I just ran smartbench 2011 and my gaming score is off by 1000 points on a stock xoom, I am rooted and running stock kernel. I am not sure why, maybe something is wrong with it.
My quadrant scores are lower than my dx but my linpack score is 64mflops! Don't know why our quadrant scores are so low but I'm having the same problem.

Off from what? A phone? Synthetic benchmarks say almost nothing about real world performance, and they will always be different with devices at different resolutions.
A 1280x800 tablet will always score unusually low on a graphics benchmark that scales to resolution compared to a phone.

Quadrant also places a lot of weight on the filesystem, and my Xoom always hangs quite a while during database writes.
Also I think that getting ~6 FPS on their first 2D animation test can't help.
The Xoom is really zippy, take the benchmarks with many, many grains of salt.
I was just talking about smart bench, everything else is working fine, but the smartbench 2011 shows a galaxy s as being more powerful than my xoom, and the half the speed of a stock xoom. I am just wondering if other people were showing that they are below what a stock xoom should be too.
you have to make sure that these benchmarks are compatible with dual core processors. otherwise the results are moot.
I know that, but it is shows below the average xoom, thats the problem I am seeing, average xoom gets like 2k I get 1k
I was having the same issue, I believe it is because of spare parts for gaming full screen. I factory restored my xoom and scored higher than average. The benchmark ran on a much smaller screen when I ran it on a fresh xoom.

Confirmed that is it, thanks for this I guess I was overlooking it and thinking my xoom wasnt up to par.
Iconia Tab A500 scored 1895 in the Benchmark test, see pics below.
stock i was getting 2100s also this need to be moved to general area no dev area.
i get well over 2300
I'd like to see how it stacks up against other HC tablets...
I got 2187 with CPU Tuner set to "performance"
i bought "set cpu" for 1.99 and set custom lowest 927 mhz highest 1ghz
This belongs in the general section -> has nothing to do with Dev
How do you guys get such high scores? On Engadget's review they state that they got 2200 - 2300 on Quadrant, however on my Tab I get around 1900 every time like the OP... Also on Linpack I get 37Gflops, Engadget say the Tab breaks 42Gflops... Is there a dual core optimized version of Quadrant and Linpack?
How many apps do u have.
also when they run benchmarks they normally kill all the tasked with advanced task killer before running.
I do a fresh reboot with all task killed, run them both get between 2100-2300 usually then about 43-45 teraflops
This has to be MegaFLOPS ya?? i mean TeraFLOPS a bit high expected from a RISC SOC isnt it? and by the way we need overclocked kernal for A500 I see Xoom hit 65 MFLOPS with 1.5GHz clock speed!
i rot 42,3 megaflops in linpack andere between 2200 - 2300 in quadrant...
i got 2400+ on Quadrant
Whatever I do I never get over 1930..
Do you have a live wallpaper on?
In quadrant, I normally get just under 2000 the first run, then if i run it a 2nd time my scores are between 2000 - 2300, just as mentioned.
Yea, it would be nice for a kernel hack, to speed up the a500 if needed. Its not a must for me, as battery times plays more of a factor.

My £200 advent vega tab is well faster than my Iconia in both quadrant and smartbench 2011,#
Just one more reason to get this thing unlocked so we can get it over-clocked.

Update: NOW the tests show 3720 average, so not sure what is going on....
I have done a bunch of tests and the average is 2650: Range as low as 2500 and 2760 was the highest. I thought people were getting about 1000 higher than that?
Been using the newest version of Quadrant and restarted the A510 as well and see no apparent signs of slowness and emulators & media play great. Something is not adding up here. Without doubt the 510 is faster than my Thrive, but that is not saying a whole lot (Tegra 2 is nearing two years old).

I tweak the kernel of the A500 on ICS and the quadrant score is 2500-2600
But don't look to hard on the quadrant benchmark , it's probably your I/O score that is low.
Hi there,
I recently bought a used v20 and found it to be really slow for a SD 820 device so today i ran Antutu and Geekbench and i'm getting like 73k in antutu and 1800 multicore in Geekbench.
That does not look right. Any suggestions?
I've searched around and no one else who thinks their phone is lagging did the benchmarks.
That doesn't sound right. Mine is running nice and smooth with no issues, did you purchase the phone from a carrier of 3rd party?
antutu average for this phone is around 130k i believe so your phone isnt working right
Your scores are really low.
I've just ran both tests and get the following results:
Antutu - 148346
Geekbench 4 - Multicore - 4061
