About difference in memory reading speed by the Android version for i.MX6 Quad.

[yuuki]

Dear all,

We run Android BSP on MX6Quad SABRE-SDB board.

We noticed that memory reading speed was different between Android4 .4.2 and Android4 .4.3.

<Measurement result>
* Android4.4.2
    eMMC Seq.Read=47.49MB/s,   SD Seq Read=22.69MB/s

* Android4.4.3
    eMMC Seq.Read=35.38MB/s,   SD Seq Read=17.92MB/s

Would you tell me the factor of the difference in this speed?

May I have any advice?

Best Regards,

Are you using the same way to measure the speed?

Please make sure that the board is running with the same clocks.

Have a great day,

Victor

Dear Victor-san,

I am sorry to delay.

Thank you for your support.

We measured by the same method.
The clock setting for eMMC/SD is the same, too.
The write speed is almost similar.

However, we seem that a performance of the reading speed may be inferior in Android4.4.3.

Are there any patches for eMMC/SD I/F in Android4.4.3?

Best Regards,
Yuuki
