I just ran GeekBench 4 on my iPhone X on iOS 11.2.2 vs 11.2.1. Single core: 4239 vs 4241 Multi-core: 10081 to 10203 So no difference.

I just ran GeekBench 4 on my iPhone X on iOS 11.2.2 vs 11.2.1.
Single core: 4239 vs 4241
Multi-core: 10081 to 10203
So no difference.
- jpambrun 9y agoDoes GeekBench 4 make a lot of syscalls? My understanding is that these are the most affected by the mitigations.
- TheSithMaster 9y agoThe test done here was comparing 11.2.2 vs 11.1.2
- dogma1138 9y agoIsn’t 11.2.1 the battery patch?
- TheSithMaster 9y agoYou are correct, it appears to be that "patch". Source: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/8211392 https://discussions.apple.com/thread/8211392
- ucha 9y agoSo basically, the difference in performance is likely almost entirely due to the battery patch and has nothing to do the Meltdown-Spectre fix.
- rmcpherson 9y agoI wonder what the difference is between the 6 used in the benchmark in the article and the iPhone X that would cause these different results. They both support speculative execution. Either way, encouraging results to a fellow iPhone X user.
- x0x0 9y agoA wild speculation: the newer procs have something similar to a pcid?
