With Linkpack and BenchmarkPi were looking at general CPU compute performance. As you'll note, the ViewPad 7 hangs tough with the other devices running Android 2.1 but can't keep pace with the Dell Streak when it's running the same version of Android 2.2.
In terms of 3D graphics performance the ViewPad 7 and Dell Streak, both of which sport Adreno 200 graphics cores, though the ViewPad's is likely clocked slightly slower to coincide with its slower 600MHz CPU clock, put up numbers very similar to each other. In fact the ViewPad actually edged out the Streak in Neocore and came up only about 10% short in An3DBench. However, neither device, even though running Android 2.2 versus the Epic 4G Android 2.1 scores here, can keep pace with the graphics muscle behind Samsung's 1GHz Hummingbird processor with its PoweVR graphics core. Incidentally, the Epic 4G sports the same processor as the Samsung Galaxy Tab and as you can see, it scores even higher here, running Android 2.2 FroYo.
