This doesn't make sense
N8 uses that single core directly on native code.
Android runs on that shitty Dalvik virtual machine. I know I'm being harsh saying shitty it is impressive but it will NEVER EVER EVER be as quick or efficient as native code.

I am moving all my java android code to native C. The forums and Android SDK say that native C will not be faster in all cases, from what I seen the perforce went from 2fps to 19fps by moving only 30% code to native C.
