Maybe, but in this case, it doesn't show (single core performance):

3 out of 6 tests is on par. On another 2 is on par with older i3s - i5s and in only one (OpenSSL) A57 ... is truly bad. Also having fewer cores is Intel's choice, it *has to* be taken in account, you can't just say "buuut I have fewer cores!", yeah but you also have...
I don't think you're correct. Phoronix is running benchs by running GNU/Linux on ARM chips: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=nvidia-tegra-x1&num=2
According to their latest results, Tegra X1 (which uses last year's Cortex-A57 cores, which are a more close performance...
Your observation is correct, Silvermont is faster than any and all of those SoCs (Tegra K1 is a closer match).
I mostly ran it on tablets (either in dual boot or chroot) and chromebooks which typically have higher end hardware than most embedded systems. I do own both Rasperry Pis though and...
Obviously like I wrote in my post I'm a user of many of those since early 2012. My complaint was targeted towards software running on a mainstream OS (iOS, Android, Windows and Mac OS X) ... like I said not many productivity apps that run on ARM there...
On that I do not disagree, but it may be less of an issue than what many think. I'm running ARM Linux since the Exynos 5250 days, a chip which by today's standards falls short to almost everything, yet I would comfortably work on most of my tasks.
My machines were not speed demons, they...
The link that you give me is old and explains why the A7 SoC fell short, I don't see how it helps in proving my remark right or wrong.
A7 and A8x is the same architecture, A8x has a tiny IPC advantage as well as higher clock rate. That's enough to represent the 20% difference seen between the...
I don't think so. The mere fact alone that it has one more core implies at least 40-50% better performance in multi-threaded applications.
Anyone showing less than that is suspect. Most often than not they are single/dual-threaded loads in a heavily multi-threaded world. That's why I call such...
There is something very much off in this picture. For one a8x less than 20% faster than A7 ?!?!
And another is Nvidia Shield tablet with its A15 cores handily beating the Denver cores of Nexus 9 ...
BTW the trend does not seem to be Apple specific. The whole of ARM world seem to be moving at the same pace. For example look at the new Samsung cores:

There is a good chance the leak is faked, but those...
I find toy benchmarks much more useful to gauge every day performance than highly specific ones that really stress the CPU.
It's a bit of how SkyLake is often 100+% faster than SandyBridge in highly specific benchmarks yet the gains are much less impressive in every-day use or games.
So yeah...
