Also it's no coincidence that this is the one benchmark where the Galaxy S 2 is faster, and it's the only one you give any credence. I don't see any reason why smartbench is any better than linpack. I don't put much stock in either of them, but at least linpack is running at the proper resolution on both devices.

um..what?!?!?! linpack isn't running at any resolution..it doesn't measure the GPU, it measures the CPU...CPU benchmarks do not matter on the resolution, in linpacks case its a floating point math. (read up on how linpack works)
I did not only give credit to Smartbench, I also gave credit to GLbenchmark..and so you know I have been advocating Smartbench and GL Benchmark back in the day when they first came out.
Linpack went faulty on the 2.2 update and Quadrant was faulty since day 1. Notice I constantly was telling you Quadrant is flawed even though it shows SGS 2 completely destroying the sensation?
Smartbench enforces resolutions on both phones...you don't notice this on wvga as its wvga but both are effected. Think of gaming benchmarks done on a PC, they try out different resolutions to see which performs better. Smartbench benched them both in same resolution as you would on a PC, which seems fair.
If you feel smartbench is incorrect, feel free to contact the developer of smartbench at xda (username: Acei ), he is always willing to work with people to improve his benchmark, smartbench has been a community effort to improve upon tested on many devices.
