Ubuntu 12.10 ARMv7 OMAP4 Performance Preview Some early benchmarks of the PandaBoard ES on Ubuntu 12.10 for a future article on Phoronix by Michael Larabel. Comparing clean/stock versions of Ubuntu 11.10, Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, and the daily development snapshot of Ubuntu 12.10 as of 2012-06-05 and then again on 2012-07-27. Using the OMAP4 Ubuntu target each time for the Texas Instruments OMAP4460 PandaBoard ES, the same development board was used each time without any changes. The compiler, kernel, etc were all their defaults within each tested Ubuntu Linux release.
