I purchased my GNex used, so I don't know its history. I rooted it, ran stock for a while, and have tried CM10, Sourcery 3.1, and (currently) Sourcery 4.5. Ever since I first benchmarked it (prior to rooting), I've noticed that Quadrant gives a very low I/O score. Here are the readings (those in parentheses are what Quadrant says a GNex should be):
Quadrant:
Total - 2036 (2574)
CPU - 5609 (5661)
Mem - 1668 (1804)
I/O - 1096 (3533)
2D - 163 (346)
3D - 1780 (1526)
I also tried Androbench, which is showing unusually slow sequential read/write speeds and random write speeds:
Androbench:
#Micro-benchmark
SEQ RD - 21.57 MB/s
SEQ RW - 3.36 MB/s
RND RD - 1769.3 IOPS (4K)
RND WR - 40.58 IOPS (4K)
#SQLite benchmark
Insert 27.69 TPS
Update 28.99 TPS
Delete 31.84 TPS
#Macro benchmark
Target:/data (ext 4)
Browser:214 msec
Market: 705 msec
I've seen similar problems reported elsewhere, and people have speculated that it has to do with filling up the storage (which the previous owner may have done for all I know, but I have 15 GB left). The only cures I've seen suggested are a factory reset or formatting data, both of which I've tried unsuccessfully. Rooting seemed to help a smidgen, but not much. Reflashing after a full wipe doesn't help.
Any suggestions? Did I buy a lemon?
