I Benchmarked the Video/Performance of select roms today and found....

I have heard about new graphics drivers and this and that, so I decided to spend a day and download different roms and test them with a program that benchmarks graphics and a few other things.

These Results are from Virtual Spaghetti's VSBenchmark2007 . (.cab link 12+ MB's)
VSBenchMark tests the following categories:
1. Graphics; Solar System Graphic
2. Others; File r/w, Fill, Compression
3. JPEG
4. Games; 5 layered sprite
5. Music; Plays a 1 minute song. 235Kbps @ 44 Khz

*** All tests were run with the Rom as downloaded. No customizations were run. Each ROM was tested twice and received an Average score. Here are the results:

I was gonna test more, but the results are so close, why bother?

So the Stock rom definately came out on top. I was quite shocked at these test. I thought a newer SYS would be faster than an old one, I was certain some folks had accellerated graphics drivers. I will attach my results to this thread in an hour or so...done.

Edit: On a side note I had no troubles flashing the above roms, and in no particular order. I think ALL these roms are great while they all definately have their Chef's Signature. I run my own rom which btw...came in with a score of 1431. But I'm not into sharing my rom

Wow. I never would have guessed that the ATI drivers would do nothing at all like that. They definitely seem to help UI performance though at least in my opinion.

**jethro_static** · #3 (**permalink**) 07-20-2008, 06:53 PM

Yeah. That's why I only put official release on my phone. No disrespect to the chefs. They do a great job for customs but it's personal preference for me.good job mr.rstoy

I'd be curious to see the graphics results of the new Treo 800w since it may or may not have hardware graphics acceleration.

Placebo effect?

I tried it with my 800w, and it didn't appear to be doing anything. It appeared to have frozen my device until I powered off. Then powered on, went to Task Manager, saw it's taking appox 9% of CPU. Switched focus to it, then same apparent lock. Gave it 5 minutes, no change. Experiment over - it failed.

They specify supported screen sizes on their site, and only square screens are 240 and 480.

I assume this is not typical behavior for the app?

Is there a difference on installing vsbenchmark on the device and the storage? I put it on the storage and I got 1449

Did you grab the WM or the Smartphone version? Other than that I'm not much help on a Treo...It is wm6 I think.
