Well 2 things:

1) "Heavy CPU" is subjective.. and there's no real way to get exact same "heavy" apps on both phones. So the "heavy" apps on N900 could be more demanding than the Android or vice versa...

2) Android stops letting you multi-task past those 6... whereas the N900 will allow to continue going.. and going.. and going....

And the comment as a whole is entirely subjective - based on POV of that user. I'm quite sure we could dig up comments from other reviewers that the N900 continues running smooth where android trudges because they ran a different set of apps and/or just noticed things differently.

Suffice to say... CPU-wise: Both are perfectly adequate for what they do.
