The AMLogic Matrix on the Antutu 5.x benchmark
| Type | Fab | GPU | CPU Integer(mt) | CPU float-point(mt) | CPU Integer(st) | CPU float-point(st) |
S805 | Cortex-A5 Quad | 28 nm | Quad-core ARM Mali-450 | 1394 | 1455 | 882 | 931 |
S802 | Cortex-A9 Quad | 28 nm | Octo core ARM Mali-450 | 2952 | 3785 | 1917 | 2142 |
S812 | Cortex-A9 Quad | 28 nm | Octo core ARM Mali-450 | 2393 | 2687 | 1735 | 1483 |
S905 | Cortex-A53 Quad | 28 nm | Penta-core ARM Mali-450 | 2310 | 2483 | 1587 | 1510 |
(MT)=multi-threaded, (ST)=single-threaded

BTW: The S805 is what makes the Odroid-C1 tick, the S905 does it for the Odroid-C2...

Bummer. I thought the S812 was as fast as the S802. I've noticed it was a little slower though. Can't find any (reasonably priced) S802 boxes any more

Antutu showed the 'ancient' S802 to be perhaps the best chip that AMLogic has yet produced. How are the scores under Geekbench?

So the S802 is perhaps the best chip that AMLogic has yet produced. How does it compare with its brethren -that are all fabricated using a 28 nm production process-, specs-wise?

If you still prefer the Cortex-A9 over the Cortex-A53 (and viewed by performance
per core/thread, which is what BOINC is mostly about, you are right), and you long for the performance of ye olde S802, try to find a tablet that works on a M802 (e.g. Onda V975m). Otherwise try to give the S912 a try.

Will report on this once I get a working version

Well it is working now. I cut the DC plug off of the supplied PSU and pushed the wires into a spare socket on a modular ATX power supply.
Boinc installed and first WU ready to run. It won't start while my display is on and I couldn't see anything to enable RPC / GUI. Boinctasks isn't seeing it either (but I haven't entered a password or authorised IP address as I couldn't see where to).
ETA : Sudden thought, is there maybe another App I need to download?

going on all 4 cores now - I saw the option to "run while display on"
still not seen by boinctasks but I guess I can live without that

Which version of Boinc? NativeBoinc or the one from Berkeley? As far as anyone can tell so far, only NativeBoinc will allow remote connections but you will need to add your BoincTask system IP address to the Android system NativeBoinc client list of hosts permitted to connect to it.

Didn't pay much attention TBH - let me check

Okay - I aborted the tasks on the Berkeley Boinc and started again with NativeBoinc (using the .ADK as it wasn't in the PlayStore)
Now crunching on WCG and showing on Boinctasks - which is just as well as NativeBoinc wouldn't let me add WCG at all. Boinctasks showing 4 WU each utilising 55-65% of the CPU (100% allowed). There are some scary run-time estimates so will have to see what actual times get returned

Anyone tried Teamviewer Host on Android?

Last time I tried it it was only useful to connect to other systems from Android. Didn't provide desktop control of Android.

I am finding much the same I think. Life is too short to lose 2 hours on this

... ... just then, the teamviewer website almost connected through a Flash (really!! I thought Flash was on the way out) interface - only to tell me that the host system doesn't support it yet. Sigh.

Solved it with hardware - HDMI to a soundbar which also gives HDMI output to a second input on the same monitor I use on my main workstation. Perfect for a classical music radio station to soothe me while I work.
Seems to Boinc away quite happily while streaming radio
