[5/16] Speed test Silence9 vs SilenceX vs Mighty5 vs SSK2.0 vs STOCK vs Others!

Last update 5/16 4:30pm PST
We have a new champion - SilenceRomX 6.1 lite! Thanks, Silence for great work!

Please help testing ROMs - contribute to PPCGeeks community
Detailed instructions:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread...d=1#post917246

There are many claims that one ROM is faster/better than the other one.
I took several current (as of 5/13/09) ROMs and ran through some basic tests.
All ROMs were installed from SD card.

1. First boot to screen calibration
2. Duration of customization
3. Second boot to start menu (to minimize CHome/TF3D difference)
4. Third boot to usable TF3D (I don't like CHome)
5. Free memory at this point
6. Opera version and time to open http://www.ibm.com/us/en (no affiliation here)
7. Test divx in core player (1 minute 720x320 DIVX car chase scene from "Gone in 60 seconds") (clip on SD card) (download http://badikoff.com/test_clip.divx - 12M)
8. I wanted to test filesystem speed (read/write) but found it too boring - and the above results reflect this anyway.


(sorted by overall performance, less is better. Underscored times are not precise.)
(3rd boot given 2x weight for its importance. Video playback is not included in overall score)

Observations:
- Speed test on coreplayer <99% makes video watching almost unusable.
- Silence9 has nice custom taskbar icons by default
- Juicy7 pagepool seems to be huge without any performance gain
- Opera 16277 is 25%! slower than 15954 (or is it ROM?)
- Psyki3 has tsowen taskbar icons, S2U and nice custom fonts - but the ROM is slow and large space bar is a waste of screen space
- SSK2 may be my new favorite (after Silence9) - but it lacks personality
- Longhorn, 4min customization, stuck soft buttons in TF3D, no touch keyboard, slow video playback - I want to like your ROM!
- Star 1.6a feel very inconsistent, like a pile of stuff and S2U pops up annoyingly
- RSTG 05 & 19 have very nice themes, 19 installs fast, both are very loaded but naming is confusing and disappointing performance
- SrX WM6.5v2 is going now head-to-head with Mighty5! Both much slower than 21042 though...
- The startup performance correlates well with CorePlayer benchmark - so if a ROM takes forever to boot up, it's likely not to be a good one
- STOCK has some interesting numbers:
a. the load time and video performance are hideous
b. internet speed is higher! not sure if it is a new day, updated PRL or what...?

Conclusion:
- If you want a fast and stable 6.1 ROM - go for SilenceX Lite
- For stable 6.5 ROM (fancy themes/start menu) - Mighty5 is the way to go
Rhodium Manila (TF3Dv2) unfortunately still buggy, wait for XBMOD from XDA to port final version.

Re: Real life Silence9 vs SilenceX vs Mighty5 vs Juicy7

Interesting test but those numbers don't really mean that much in terms of reliability, usability out of the box, performance after 2 weeks of no resetting etc. And where's PsykiROM on the list?

Most of the ROMs are pretty much the same once you get certain level of quality. The difference is whether google maps/facebook/pocketrar are installed (which I really don't care, I got all the cab I need on SD card with updated versions).

I use my pocket pc for medical software, internet/email and as media player. I want it to boot fast from soft reset and to do hard reset fast as well (if I run into serious trouble).

More ROM testing is coming up!

I really did not like SPB MS interface. Eye candy, but not very functional (or requires too much customization)...
