Benchmarking smartphones

Here's a question - what are the best ways of benchmarking smartphones?

I've seen the following that look interesting:
  • Sunspider JavaScript benchmark, which tests the JavaScript performance of the browser. Runs on anything that supports JavaScript.
  • GLBenchmark, which tests mobile OpenGL performance, and runs on Android, iOS, Linux and Symbian
  • Aurora Quadrant, tests CPU, memory, I/O, 2D and 3D graphics, but only runs on Android devices.
  • HTML5 test tests the HTML5 compliance of the device. There's a couple of areas I have issues with on this one, including WebGL which I consider to be one of the Internet's poorer ideas!

Think we should start by benchmarking devices we already have?

Edit below for results

Sunspider JavaScript on default browser ordered by fastest:

BlackBerry Bold 9900 (OS 7) 2764.2 +/- 4.4%
LG Optimus P920 3D (Stock 2.2) 4279.8 +/- 1.5%
HTC Evo (Stock 2.2 ROM) - 4368.8 +/- 2.9%
HTC Desire (Cyano 7.02.01) - 4437.9 +/- 2.8%
Dell Streak (Stock 2.2 ROM) - 5542.9ms +/- 0.9%
LG GT540 (Stock 2.1 ROM) - 45975.5ms +/- 1.1%
Nokia N97 (Unknown ROM) - failed to complete after hours.

HTC Evo (Stock 2.2 ROM) - 4368.8 +/- 2.9%

I suspect the larger variance is due to me stopping the screen from blanking during the test (it would dim and I would touch the screen to bring it back up)

Interestingly, I had to run the SunSpider bench using the built-in browser, because Opera Mini hangs on the 'math spectral-norm' portion of the test.

access-fannkuch is one of the many tests that it runs. It sounds like it's just taking some time to run them - you might have to set aside a block of time for the phone to do it. I know that one of the devices I tested took more than 10 minutes to complete the testing.

Ok, I guess we have to say that it either fails or takes too long!
