Test the performance of your Android smartphone or tablet and compare your results with Geekbench – a leader in CPU and GPU benchmarking. I have a lot more to say about the problematics of the GB workload orientation, but that's for another post.How will your mobile device perform when push comes to crunch? How will it compare to the newest devices on the market? Find out today with Geekbench 6. MSM produces articles that only question world affairs from perspective of their industrial interest groups. I have a big bine to pick, because this evolution is playing out the same way that U.S. But PrimateLabs itself is on record with its stance. I don't mean to underplay what a complex subject this. I am saying that the tool is being adjusted to please a certain segment of the industry, where the CEO is forthcoming and pleased to represent this orientation.īut for me it comes down to a tool that had a spitting chance to be a general bench-marking tool is becoming a validator of preexisting design assumptions.

I also have no doubt that AppleSi does well in the selected workloads.You don't invest a gadjillion bucks in fabrication of exotic innards for a trillion$ personal computer market without doing diligence on the design. My feeling is that Geekbench is debasing itself as a benchmark and becoming kit for Apple's industry segment. In fact the CEO prefers to reserve the right to dork around with metrics behind the curtain in the future. My key takeaway is that (in so many words) //PrimateLabs chose new workloads that represent what Apple customers tend to do with their devices.// -and- //We have no real interest in metric fidelity across versions//.

Read the origin story of PrimateLabs founder and think about how bread is buttered. Interesting to see the big bump of GB6 single score for AppleSi single over Intel where the was pretty much score parity in GB5, as this the most criritcal category for marketing. I've heard that the speed of light is subject to occasional revision even after it was discovered to be a universal constant, so there's no end to grief.

In 80s there were class action lawsuits over 'missing inches' in TV screens that were advertised as 25 inches diagonal but actually measured as 24.5. This sort of thing has been an ongoing point of consumer legal activism. Hey you're short-changing me on drives! A 1 TB drive holds less than a 1 TiB drive.

So if you had 1,073,741,824 bytes of files on your drive, which was reported as 1 GB, after a macOS update the same usage was reported as 1.07 GB. It reminds me of when Apple switched from storage reporting from powers of 2 units, GiB, to powers of ten units, GB, and had to try to explain why data usage suddenly got bigger.Īpple had been using the suffix of 'GB' but counting in GiB. 'ZOMG I just switched to GB6 and my system is 20% slower, what do I do?' 'I just upgraded my system: I went from GB5 to GB6 and overall performance went up 20%' Well, GB is the defacto general benchmark! The point is that it's supposed to stay the same so you can see what else is changing.

If the scores change without clear understanding of why, a benchmark is useless. But for casual comparisons going from 5 -> 6 just raises the curtain on how subjective the matter. They could wave their hands and that was ok with me.īut since 5, GB is so well established as a reference that any question of refinement must address specific details of workloads: So far GB versions have for me been informed by a thread of plausible ignorance at the GB Corp as to what constitutes a good general benchmark, which they were evolving and refining. This update will lead to a lot of churn for GB Corp which is maybe good for them, but as they've released another instance with its own performance context this results in confusion for me (as an everyman) because my previous reference points of reference have just been reset, all too common for the computing industry. If anyone comes across a good writeup, please post. Unfortunately for users everywhere, details on what makes the workloads more meaningful (presumably) are not summarized. Building a CustoMac Hackintosh: Buyer's Guideīased on the GB6 home blurb, it reads that the workloads have been revamped, but the scale factors have not changed.
