Hi
We are planning to port android nougat in one of our custom iMX6 quad sabresd platform which currently is running on Android 5.0. Before starting that exercise we would to know the performance improvement Android 7 will have on iMX6 quad platform.
We are currently in the evaluation stage , if Android 7 in iMX6 quad has significant performance improvement when compared with Android 5 in iMX6 quad , we can go ahead with our porting exercise else we will have to look for a different option.
My question is has anyone have done a performance comparison between Android 5 & 7 in iMX6 quad processor ?
Hello himanshu,
For benchmarking on Android you can run Nena Mark, GFXBench benchmark and Antutu Benchmark. In our case
AnTuTu Benchmark v5.2 Results on Android M7:
Android 5 Android 7
Total Scores | 18936 | 19661 |
Multitask | 3234 | 3365 |
Runtime | 2466 | 2652 |
RAM Operation | 1505 | 1687 |
RAM Speed | 688 | 688 |
CPU integer(multi-thread) | 1457 | 1508 |
CPU float-point(multi-thread) | 1759 | 1809 |
CPU integer(single-thread) | 901 | 971 |
CPU float-point(single-thread) | 998 | 1086 |
2D graphics | 547 | 667 |
3D graphics | 3984 | 4075 |
Storage I/O | 496 | 508 |
Database I/O | 601 | 645 |
These are only scores, but we have good performance comparing to other android 5. And we have very good performance using i.MX6Q
