Android Benchmarks

There are a number of useful benchmarks, for testing the performance of different things in an Android system.

Here are some available from the Android market:

0xbench

 * 0xbench in the Android Market
 * Has several built-in benchmarks, such as Linpack, Scimark2, and LibMicro
 * Project page at: http://code.google.com/p/0xbench
 * Some tests require root privileges (LibMicro and Unixbench)

Quadrant

 * Quadrant Standard Edition, in Android Market
 * Quadrant Standard Edition, on AppBrain
 * CPU, I/O and 3D graphics benchmark
 * CPU - arithmetic operations, XML parsing, multimedia decoding
 * Memory throughput
 * I/O - filesystem access and database operations
 * 2D graphics
 * 3D graphics - OpenGL single-pass and multi-pass rendering with stencil buffers
 * Standard edition is free, and not for commercial use - only produces a single number, that I can see
 * Produced by Aurora Softworks


 * Quadrant Advanced and Professional Editions
 * These editions are available on SlideME
 * Allows for customizing the tests run (and viewing results?)

Some people have posted benchmark scores from their devices here: http://androidforums.com/samsung-vibrant/139183-post-your-quadrant-benchmark-scores.html

Command Line benchmarks
iozone -i 0 -i 1 -i 2 -i 4 -i 6 -i 7 -s 1024k
 * iozone filesystem benchmark
 * ex: to test filesystem I/Os using a l 1MB file, using 4KB record size, without fflush & with fsync
