Low Quadrant score for CM10-stable? - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

I'm running CM10 stable on my GS3 T999. No problems, but I noticed that the Quadrant score is around 4200, which is about 1000 pts slower than running stock TouchWiz. What gives?

OMG, your phone must be slow & sluggish!! Maybe you should overclock it to 2100 to get a really high score!!
Seriously, quadrant is stupid and just throws random numbers at you. If your phone feels fast then there you go. If it feels slow, then go back to TouchWiz.

If my phone "feels" fast? Really? Isn't there a more quantitative way to measure performance? All I was asking for was a technical explanation.

I gave you one, quadrant just throws random numbers you... that's about as technical as you need.

Quadrant standard question?

Is a 1767 good on a g2?
Also got an 1898 when I took off my live wallpaper
I hit about 2100 or so...depends on whats running

You'll hear a million times from a million folks that Quadrant scored are meaningless. You can have a stellar score and a buggy ass ROM or an average score and a great smooth experience with your ROM. Just gotta use what works best for you and if that also means high Quad score cool. When I OC to 1.8, I get over 2500, but it sucks my battery like a filthy back alley hooker.

Gotcha, im running virtuous 1.0 with advanced kernel(virtuous as well) OC'd to 998mhz.

my battery life isnt good in general, barely get's me half way through the day, and that's with following the other thread stating to delete the sense account and all.
So this is me at 1.8ghz a little while ago. Found out that if I run it set to "Performance" in SetCPU I get stellar speed, but as soon as my screen shuts off it won't come back on. Need to do a battery pull or hold down power for like 10 seconds to reboot. Eh, such is life.
@tjbunch
Here's my solution for that problem. In the setcpu profiles, make a profile for screen off and set the speeds to as low as possible. Like 245/245... ever since I did that I've never had that problem again. Hope it helps.
Edit: don't forget to set priority to the highest on that profile.

Why are my Quadrant tests getting around 1400??

Any idea? Most reviews i saw for the GNex shows it getting 1700-2000+.
Meaningless or not, i wanna know why it's so much less.
Wtf

I checked it right when I got the phone for the hell of it and got around the same number. The only thing I care about is if it will lag with daily use. If it doesn't I don't care if it has half a core and 1 byte of ram.
Quadrant scores are meaningless and don't give any indication of how the phone performs in real world use.
My old Galaxy S2 scored 4000+ in quadrant but does it feel 3 times faster than my Nexus definitely no!
Again, I don't care about what the test actually means but why are our scores so much lower on the same device compared to the reviews show? What is different and why? It leads me to believe that something is wrong.
I freaked too, but I think its bs. If you install System Monitor you can watch both CPU cores in action. Also, other bench tests clearly show that you're getting dual core performance. I think Quadrant will need an update.

I get around 1400+ as well in quadrant and I don't think there is anything wrong as when I first got my GS2 my scores where lower than what was seen online from reviewers as well.
Don't forget they probably had a phone with no extra apps on it or just the bare minimum which could also affect the scores.

I got a 1700 reading from quadrant. I don't know if quadrant takes advantage of the dualcore cpu?

I think it doesn't and it needs a desperate update anyway to fully support ICS.
Someone correct me if I am wrong about quadrant standard not seeing both cores?
It's the higher resolution mainly.

[Q] Extremely low quadrant score. What do i do?

Okay, so the other day, i ran quadrant on my gs2 against my brohters gs4g and i got 3259 and my brother got 938. I tried again today, and i got 1208 and the gs4g got 1190. i ran the test seversl times and the same result, nothing more than 1300. I didn't change anything from the first time i ran the test, so is my phone messed up? I know most people don't really like quadrant, but i use it because it kind of gives me peace of mind knowing my phone is better thssn everyone else's
Don't worry about it. It really doesnt matter.

Reboot your phone then wait for about 30 seconds while everything settles (dont run any other apps) then run quadrant. What score did you get this time?
I tried the reboot thing after the first low score and pretty much the same score

Quadrant doesnt go well with Dual Core Snapdragon Processors. I've been getting 2000 each time a ran it. Try ANTUTU Benchmark and see what you get.
Quandrant doesnt define a phone of how great your phone is.
Or CF bench works well!

Quadrant is a horribly outdated benchmark, don't rely on it ever.

I'll take what AnTuTu Benchmark gave me.. Listed me at 6327... Just over the Nexus ;-)
Main thing that brought me down as my stupid SD card because I have some generic piece of junk --- EDIT: Just ran it against the internal SD, and I got 6577. Even above the Galaxy Note ;-)
I know that quadrant is not optimized for dual core, but that doesnt explain why i was getting 3000+ and it just dropped to less than 1000
Btw antutu was 6492 idk if thats good or bad so...

These threads get so old. Does everything work on your phone? Is it smooth and responsive? Then who cares what some outdated benchmark says. You are the benchmark.
I changed the rom on my friend's mytouch 4g and he scored 3246 on miui oc to 1.6 ghz lagfree, It beat my gs2 running zombie oc to 1.72 ghz lagfree 2976 i dont think quadrant is an accurate benchmark at all, so markus is right, YOU are the benchmark.

Processor Question

Hey I was wondering, does my processor take breaking in? I just returned my other s3 because of defects but with this completely new one the quadrant scores and antutu scores are very low.. only like 3300 on quadrant and something low on antutu also.
The average stock benchmark scores are around 4800 and 6800 in antutu. So will my phone start breaking in and speeding up?
Those benchmarks mean nothing
As long as the phone feels smooth ignore benchmarks

True but I'd like it to run like everyone else's...
Honestly it's just a matter of feeling like your on the top of the food chain =p and for the record, after afew hours of getting my processor warmed up and kicked in, my scores jumped way up
I don't need benchmark scores to know I'm better than every one else
Being stuck up is great

Not to be rude. So sorry if this comes off all flame-Ish but you do realize that a CPU is made out of soi transistors those don't hold state if anything the heat slowly changes the resistance in negative ways over 1000s of hours of use leads to heat increase and eventual failure over a very long time line well that's how it goes in x86 computing only if stuff gets hot though. If it stays below 100Ish you don't see the heat increase part.
No seriously though Linux uses a cache so does dalvik and beyond that Android also uses a cache so benchmarks being subjective aside yes it takes a bit.
Just remember benchmarks are there to test changes and compare hardware. On Android....really Linux in general its almost impossible to compare hardware sometimes. The difference are not something that translates and. All of Android operates through a vm pretty much. ..
So your stuck back at comparison .using them to create a applicable baseline for say ....those tweaks you make in setcpu or maybe that shiny new kernel you flash vs the last version.

I'm totally not with him though. If you are altering settings in your phone like cache stuff. You want to quantify the effects of the changes any way you can not that linpack our antutu or that complete piece of garbage quadrant are the defacto meter for that

I don't understand how I go from 3800 in quadrant to 5089 after a few hours of nothing but stock lol.. then 4200 antutu to 6867.. but it goes up and down a little. I like to think processors are getting more advanced and are becoming aware lol. Turning into brains. Give it 5 years and hardware for phones will be so good we can play wow on them and then later on s voice will have a real personality and be living XD she will shock you for even thinking about looking at an iPhone or HTC =p. I know I'm sleep typing or something and that this is all random XD
Could it be possible that your phone was busy building cache files ? If you get quadrant pro it give you a breakdown of each score if you notice your I/o score is low then the filesystem is busy doing god knows what .

Buddy a15 arch power savings aside isn't that stellar AMD is the only one talking innovation in cpus. Trust me you will be looking through your cellphone soon not at looking at it

AnTuTu scores stop after installing Note2Core EX

As the title says, I'm getting about 400 points less? Not sure what to make of it. I just flashed it in TWRP. Should I be concerned?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2
Closed all my recent apps, and cleated my RAM. Got 18571. That's still only about 300 higher than stock. From what I'm seeing in AnTuTu's rankings, I should still be getting 500-700 points higher... Any tips? I'm new to the whole overclocking thing. At any rate, the new ROM makes Triangle Away work again.

Keep in mind benchmarks only tell half the story. If you want reliable results, reboot your phone, put your phone in airplane mode and then run some benchmarks.
I run Vellamo, Smart bench, Quadrant, and Antutu. Results will always vary. Also, if your GPU is Oc'd you will get better results. Depends on your kernel.
I'm around 18600 on Antutu, not overclocked, running JediX8 ROM with baked in kernel. Consistent results, and amazing battery. Who cares about a couple hundred points.
One more thing to point out. If you want the highest possible scores, run something that isn't TouchWiz based. Motion, Svoice, Spen and all the other Sammy stuff slows the device down.
