JBenchmark 1.0

JBenchmark 1.0 is a graphical performance measuring tool for the ever spreading Java enabled, color-screen mobile phones and pdas. JBenchmark helps performance hungry customers choosing the right mobile device.

JBenchmark is a small (28 KByte) Java program (midlet) which can be downloaded freely from the webpage. It contains 5 short (10 seconds each) graphical tests, each trying different aspects of the underlying graphical hardware. During the benchmarking phase the software counts how many frames were drawn on the screen - the final JBenchmark score simply the sum to these.

The first test measures the device's text drawing speed (using random colors).

The second test draws random 2 dimensional shapes on the screen.

he third test tries the impossible by drawing a dancing 3D cube in realtime.

The fourth test is rather boring one: without direct framebuffer drawing, the software tries to fill the screen with small random colored squares.

The last test runs well on most of the machines: shows a simple animated Globe.
