there is obviously a bottleneck in this soc which by my educated guess is not cpu or gpu but something else that cripples them...

rezults are from slatedroid
copied from slatedroid, best i can tell they are all devices based on the same SoC:
Code:
[2] Amlogic AM8726 - A9 @ 800 MHz or 1 GHz O/C + ARM Mali-400
*Great Linpack & CPU scores, great 2D, weaker I/O and good 3D.

What is interesting that some report much higher IO than others. And that high IO seems to match out with low 2D performance. In the end i wonder if we are looking at more of a driver issue than a hardware issue.

Also, the Amlogic is clocked at 800Mhz, yet it appears to keep pace with A8 SoC clocked at 1Ghz or even 1.5Ghz in some cases:

But i don't mind, for me the benefits of a truly open stack (and the long term benefits of that) outweighs potential performance issues.
