Quadrant Scores - Seem low? - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just got my Zoom and I have had other tablets, so Im not totally new to rooting/etc and Ive been reading the Overclock thread in development and my quadrant scores at 1GHZ is 1722 and at 1500 (setcpu) its 2211. In the thread, people report 22xx at stock 1GHz speed and arouns 28xx with the overclock.
Any ideas why my scores are much lower?
Thanks

I wouldn't worry about Quadrant scores, ever.
If the Xoom is fast at tasks, it's fast at tasks, the end.

Good point ... Ill have to check it out in a few games and see how it goes.
Thanks

I agree that benchmarks in general and Quadrant specifically aren't what matters, but my Xoom wifi got 1892. So, scores can be all over the place.

My Xoom scores over 3000 at 1500mhz on my Xoom... it means nothing.

an oc'ed archos 101 running on ext4 at 1200mhz can reach 2900. but it's real world performance is far from what the xoom can do... excluding video playback - the archos can do high profile 720p with ac3 5.1.

The stock score, was that before or after setcpu? If it was after, then it must be on the MIN/MAX settings and/or the governor settings you're using. Mine scores 2300+ stock as well.. I have the 3G verizon version..

The lower score was with SetCPU on the stock 1GHz, and my second score was with SetCPU at 1500. At the 1500 settings I seem to be scoring what most do at stock, which is why I was curious.
Its quick overall, but to test a HEavy Flash Site I hit Disney.com with Dolphin and its a bit slow to load up, but I have to assume thats the Flash Issue.
I do love this Xoom (Wifi Version)

Try rebooting, running Quadrant from a fresh boot with nothing else running... also set the governor to 'Performance,' will likely boost your high score.

Quadrant scores dropped after pershoot/VegaN install

Folks,
I was originally running the stock kernel + TnT Lite (latest) and using quadrant standard was achieving benchmark scores in the 2400's - now after installing pershoot kernel (latest with no modules) and the latest VegaN I am now seeing a score of just over 1700 - is this something I should be particularly concerned about? Are there, for lack of a better term, optimizations that are missing either from this ROM or kernel that are coming in the future?
Stock kernel and vegan tab 5.1 gets me mid 2400's
CPU governor
I believe this is because pershoot uses the ondemand cpu governor instead of performance. Gives better battery, but benchmarks are lower. In daily use you really shouldn't see a difference as the cpu will ramp up when you need it.
that totally makes sense... thanks...
I have a custom compiled ROM from ejhart in #tegratab and I get 2000 in Quadrant but I run Dungeon Defenders flawlessly, so I could give two s**ts about Quadrant

I too don't necessarily care about break-neck speed results in Quadrant but what I do care about is if lower scores are being caused by bleeding-edge drivers that may cause problems for me down the road vs. power saving techniques being employed by the kernel - hence my original question.
But at the end of the day, if what you need runs smoothly, then its all moot

I am running VEGAn 5.1.1 with the stock kernel also but I am getting scores of 1800-1900 with Quadrant Standard
How can I figure out why I am not seeing a higher level of performance? Thanks.
Jay
Just ran it and got 2559 - Vegan 5.1.1 - Clemsyn Kernel and libsqlite.so and plenty of stuff running.
I'm pretty sure it has always been around 2100+ on any ROM or stock kernel I have tried.
That is strange..

quadrant vs smartbench 2011

i am running infused 1.3.1 andon quadrant i would score 1500-1750 but on smartbench i would get 915-1015 on cpu and pretty close to 3000 on gpu , i have two questions, are those score from smart bench good and secondly which should i take more seriously quadrant or smart bench

if you buy the full version of quadrant you get more information, i am totally against the idea of just stacking scores like quadrant does. that being said smart benchmark attempts to make a simple compsite score that is more relevant than the otheres do using some kind of algorithm to balance the weight of each componant, i dont agree with that either.
if you want to benchmark to figure out what you have improved specifically then get antutu or pay for quadrant but never look at the cumulative scores, it is totally irrelevant.
if you want to see how the performance compare acording to an algorithm get smart benchmark
if you want to be impressed with the phone, run a 3d/opengl benchmark. or otherwise play some H.264 codec .mkv videos at 720p (1080p also works but at a lower bitrate and class, the 720 video would likely look better) then try the same video on an atrix and an inspire.

Post your Quadant scores

I am getting 1669
With [EE4] GummyCHARGED 1.5 and PeanutButta Jelly Time voodoo kernel.
What are you getting?
I can live with mine.
It varies between 1450-1690
Sorry. Bad shot...it was 1496

How do you take a screenshot from within Quadrant? Holding my back key keeps sending me back to the homescreen.
Regardless, just scored 1790 Been between there and 1650 or so.
On GC 1.5 + PBJ

ShootMe from the market.
1701: This is EE4 debloated with PBJT and Voodoo enabled.
Thanks for the shootme note Just got 1719, here's my screen
Gc 1.5 + pb&j = 1709
i dont have alot of free time right now so i only have EE4 with root, voodoo lagfix and cwm recovery kernel installed , stock other than that.
Edit: how do i make the pic small like the rest?
thanks

I'm at work now so I don't have a screenshot, but I've been getting between 1550 and 1710 running pb&j with stock rom and the chainfire3d driver. phone feels a lot snappier, games run much better thanks to the driver, and battery life is about the same if a not a little bit better.

I like Antutu better becaue it breaks down the score into the various tests (and its free).
PBJ @ 1.4Ghz
I know people like to disregard these Quadrant scores, but I wonder what causes the LG Revo's stock 1ghz to get the same scores as these 1.4ghz OC'd devices.
But at the same time, the graphics were noticeably choppier on the Revo vs the Charge when I had them run the same [simple] Flash-based game.
I tested all 3 4G phones side-by-side in the store with various methods. The graphics processing is what tipped my scale to the Charge over the Revo.

the hummingbird is just better with graphics but the 2nd gen snapdragon does better in data reads or calculations etc..

Ah thanks, got it! Good to know.
Quadrant puts a heavy emphasis on CPU scores, which the Snapdragon processors do great at (same goes for I/O as far as scores are concerned). They don't weight the graphics scores as highly, which is where the Hummingbird wins.
beat that. Jk

[Q] Overclock benchmark question

I have Prime v1.6 and Netformer 1.5.
I turned it up to 1.4ghz and i ran the Quadrant benchmark, i got a 2031.
now im looking on some websites and they show they got over 4000?
what's with this? am i getting correct numbers or not?
I got 6123 benchmark, clocked at 1.6ghz

If your TF isn't fully stable at a certain clockspeed then performance of the device may be affected resulting in a lower benchmark result.
A lot of these benchmarks are flawed and can be hacked. I get 35xx at 1.5 GHz on Revolver 1.1.1

Overclocking/undervolting the TF700 gpu

Dear XDA people,
Im currently working with Max's V4 RC2 kernel in combination with Cromi-X 4.6.9 (still need to update to the latest), which gives me a pretty smooth working tablet.
Now, im running the cpu at 1900mhz, 1225mV (still testing if i can go lower), and I can adjust speed and voltage nicely with Trickster Mod.
But, I would wan't to crank up the gpu speed (which is currently 666mhz I think?) and have the same "options/settings" available to do so. For example, a rom limitation of 750/800mhz on the gpu, with a variation of voltages to choose from. This way I can get as much gpu power as possible, since i find gaming on the tf700 pretty disappointing in terms of performance (of course a lot of games are not optimized for tegra).
Do you guys know what would be the best possible solution to overclock/adjust the gpu speed+voltage?
Thanks!

I think 666mhz GPU setting is probably reserved for Satans minions. At the moment the only way to control GPU speed is by adjusting the voltage. This is easiest using hunds kernel (3.1 if you have problems with 3.2) and his app. Together, you can crank the GPU all the way up to 775MHz and fry some eggs on the back of your TF700 and waiting for it to go into nuclear meltdown.
I know the gpu runs hot, thats why I want to see what speeds can be achieved with limited voltage. So you‘re saying the only way to change gpu speed is by setting a higher voltage for it? Why is that exactly?

You've posted this in the wrong forum, so it will be deleted, in the mean time there is really no reason to use 1900mhz even less so while gaming. 1700mhz at max (it can go higher but you wont see much change/ if at all in benchmarks/ games but u'll see the difference in battery life)
As for gpu i run 750 mhz but again the difference between 650 - 750 mhz is hardly noticeable, gaming performance isn't great on the tf700, the tf300t doesn't look as good but its noticeably smoother with 3d
Moral of the story the tegra 3 gpu isn't powerful enough for 1920x1200 the tegra 4 wont be much better, the tegra 5 is the interesting one

Yes, that's what I'm saying. Unless you want to learn to create kernels and do all the magical voodoo these wizards do to bring us OC kernels!

I have no idea, been wondering that myself. I even posted the question somewhere about a week ago, but no one enlightened me. I really reccomend using hunds kernel and app though. There is a "gaming" option in his app that works very well, good speed without the ominous red glow of molten metal on your TF700's back panel.

Are you saying increasing gpu voltage will subsequently increase gpu frequency? (i have no idea how it works, ive never bothered to look into it but now im interested) _that or Hunds will know but im guessing if thats the case freq and voltage must be linked in a voltage table but i would have thought freq could be changed independently to voltage

I know the tf700 isnt much of a gaming tablet unfortunately, but then again, why not setting it up so that it runs games as smooth as the hardware will allow ? Every small improvement is an improvement if you ask me.
For 750mhz gpu, what kernel are you using?

I'm using hundsbuahs latest kernel, the problem with tegra CPUs is thermal throttling, it starts around 72c on a lot of devices (not sure about the tf700) at 1900 you could find worse gaming performance than a lower cpu / GPU clock speed. Its completely up to you, hundsbuahs kernels give users a lot of flexibility as they can push the devices to the limit, I like _that's kernels personally they suited to my usage (what ever that means)
