Yeah but it's been customized to perform better.
Think of it as a 1.1GHz Cortex A8 with SGX540 (drools)
now if you think that doesn't matter, compare it to the Snapdragon.
It's a completely modified SoC performs below a 1GHz Cortex A8's standard (I think more at 880MHz) and it combines a Adreno 200 GPU (comparable to a SGX530).
So the Nexus One and Samsung Galaxy S are on the opposing sides of the Cortex A8 performance, but with Android's java implementation, both chips perform quite close (since HTC's software implementation is better).

What this points to is that for graphics its likely that both CPU and GPU play major roles in processing the images instead of the traditional where the GPU does the work and the CPU stays idle. I actually prefer the traditional method because I think it leaves some overhead for multitasking and saves on battery.
But the real point I should make, the QSD should never be able to hit 28Mpoly/sec, it should only do about half due to the RAM limitations. There are many posts on the internet that claim the Motorola Droid has better graphics in Market games, and now its easy to know why.

It still is a Cortex A8

Excellent hardware - but whats the use if there is hardly any software that will make use of it?

Why on earth would someone want BADA on his N900?

And don't care if they are irrelevant.
Can't see another explanation.
