Really Ridiculously Low Scores - AT&T LG Optimus G

I'm running Vanilla RootBox 5-18 w/ houstonn minimum 167ghz kernel. These are real crappy Quadrant Standard scores. I'm amazed at how bad they are. I've ran RootBox before, and I was getting around 7000+ I'm not sure why they've dropped so much, and on stock I got 8000+ but this.. This is just sad. I'm not saying this is a RootBox problem, Im just wondering if any of you guys are getting these results?
I tuned everything to its MAX for one and the other one is the usual settings I have it on. But for it to be on max, isn't this a little low.
The 5k one is max settings the 3k one is my normal settings.

Eh. Benchmark scores are influenced by so many things, they're not really a very good indicator of performance. Does your phone do what you need it to? Is it quick enough for you? Then don't work about any bm score.

Yeah it is still snappy quick. I'm just obsessed with my bm scores. I have a old phone that is a peice of crap, and now they are about equal in benchmark scores. :/ Its just a little frightening. I think it may just be getting lower and lower because flashing things adds junk, then when you get rid of that and add a different thing, the junk stays there and just keeps piling up. Do you know if LGNPST completely gets rid of everything? or just /system, /data?

What??? When you flash a different ROM just wipe "system reset" and if you want system. That will format you data, system and cache partitions. This is known as a "clean flash". Then wipe dalvik/cache and reboot.
BM scores are irrelevant. What matters is how the ROM/phone performs.

That's not why. Software can influence benchmarks. I've used some lagfixes on my Captivate to push it higher than some S3 scores. Ignore benchmarks they have no importance. I'd worry more about the phone doing what I want without issues.

This. And also, the quality of the benchmarking solution can be an issue as well. I have heard that Quadrant is outdated and does not benchmark fast, quality phones very well. Check out Antutu maybe....

Its always been easy to cheat at synthetic benchmarks. They're worthless.

I'm going to disagree s bit an say benchmarks are good for testing a phone against it self. Has your phone gotten higher scores before? If so, my guess is temperature throttling. Down load quick system info app. It will show cores and usage while operating so you can see if you're reaching top max settings. Click arrow next to info in notification tray and info will float like qslide

It's not entirely throttling. I've disabled temp throttling, run it in the deep freeze, etc. I also check time in state logs to verify that all cores stay pegged at maxfreq.

Lg did a great job with optimizing the stock ROM n kernel. This is why stock out scores aosp. To bad you don't feel the difference in day to day use.
