I thought the Quadrant Standard Edition scores I got earlier (averaging 2300+ on multiple runs) seemed high, so I downloaded the DeviceMark benchmark (https://market.android.com/details?id=cn.opda.android.activity) which uses the Quadrant benchmark tests but compares the result against a "global" database of results with other phones. (I'm not sure what edition of Quadrant it uses or how its results compare to Quadrant Standard Editition) Anyway, DeviceMark came back with a score of 1478, which ranks it just behind an LG Optimus 2X (1 Ghz Tegra2) and just ahead of the hTC Desire HD (1GHz Qualcomm MSM8255 Snapdragon, same as the Warp). Not too shabby. I'm sure there are cases where the Tegra2's dual-core processor will leave the Snapdragon behind, but Quadrant certainly isn't finding them.
By the way, DeviceMark also evaluates SD card performance. I picked up a 32 GB SanDisk class 2 card recently to use in my Warp, partly because I'd read that Sandisk's class ratings tended to be very conservative, and that a Sandisk class 2 was equivalent to most other vendor's class 6 cards. The DeviceMark test confirmed that -- on both runs it indicated write speeds of well over 6 MB/s (over 8 MB/s on the second run) and read speeds of 18-19 MB/s. You can pick up the 32 GB class 2 Sandisk card for about $40 on Amazon, which I think is a great deal for a name brand card that easily meets the class 6 spec.
