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.

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 difference between Quadrant standard and AnTuTu benchmark? I just pulled a 4105 on antutu and for some reason that doesnt seem right.
I am wondering what MFLOPs are. I know that they are a benchmark of how good your cpu is, but what exactly are they? When I ran linpack my atrix scored 69.069 MFLOPS. Is this a good score?
sorry for the newb questions, , and thanks for helping me.
I have no idea but here is trusty old eHow
http://www.ehow.com/how_5271848_calculate-mflops.html
And 69 MFLOPS is actually a really good score AFAIK
what apps is everyone using for their benchmark tests? i did antutu and quadrant, got 24,430 and 12292 respectively. are those good scores?
edit: i also ran vellamo and got 2081 on html5 and 814 on metal...
I got 12700 in Quadrant and 25524 in AnTuTu all stock. Benchmarks really don't mean much.
Other people run 3dmark and Geekbench too. And Epic Citadel.
