I ran the ARM Linux version of Geekbench posted in other threads on this forum today. My platform is a Tegra T30 running Ubuntu 12.04 armhf and had some interesting findings. FIrst I noticed that the results only show a single core of the quad-core T30 so it only ran the single-threaded tests. Among those tests, the performance was quite a bit higher than the same processor variant in an Asus Transformer TF201 running Android. I'd really like to try running on all four cores to see how the multi-threaded performance compares.

My results:

Comparison with TF201:

Also, I wonder why some results show the TF201 as ARM cardhu and others show it as ARMv7?

Eric

    Hi Eric,

    Thank you for your message and I'm sorry for the delay in getting back to you (unfortunately our support system flagged your message as spam).

    I'll investigate why Geekbench isn't detecting all four cores in your system. Also, Geekbench for Android and Geekbench for Linux use different methods to determine the processor name. I'm not surprised that the processor name is different under each operating system.

    Best,
    John
