     @sun I believe "GeekBench" is a JavaScript benchmark and of course it'll fare worse than a device with hardware JavaScript acceleration.

     @why @sun
     No, according to the comments, it's probably a power management issue as there is no difference when it's on AC and when running on battery, and the clock goes up only to 2,4 although it should go all the way up to 4,0.

     @deutrino it may be due to a firmware bug

     @sun I honestly kinda hope so, I am not a CPU hardware engineer but the microarch overview that came out yesterday certainly suggested it should have pretty good performance.
