They all show 512K L2 as such same cores: Orion O6 Debug Party Invitation - #30 by RadxaNaoki
Also interesting:
- memory timings (at least for the A720) are already excellent (four 32-bit channels total)
- clockspeeds right now do not differ in a way we could talk about ‘big’ and ‘middle’ (1 x 2.5 GHz, 3 x 2.4 GHz, 2 x 2.3 GHz, 2 x 2.2 GHz – this might change though)
- it looks like cpufreq is controlled by an MCU inside the SoC and not Linux’ cpufreq driver (maybe a good choice given the state of ‘energy aware scheduling’ on Linux on ARM though this would result in task affinity controlled by the kernel vs. clockspeeds controlled by firmware)
I’m already curious how things will look with Cix’ BSP kernel which likely will show better ‘real-world’ performance (majority of CPU benchmarks are always somewhat stupid since they (should) ramp up cpufreq to the max but in reality it’s a lot about the balance between consumption and performance where settings matter).
Thanks, will be fixed with next version.
