As you can see, there's a very significant performance penalty that comes with enabling FDE [full device encryption], with a 62.9% drop in random read performance, a 50.5% drop in random write performance, and a staggering 80.7% drop in sequential read performance.

Shifty Pony posted:

just curious, does the flash performance of a modern smartphone actually affect usability, or is the bottleneck elsewhere in the system like the cpu or os?

Like I mentioned earlier, Motorola provided us with a build of Android with FDE disabled. Unfortunately, I haven't noticed any improvements to many of the areas where there are significant frame rate issues such as Messenger and Calendar. I speculated in the Nexus 6 review that the performance issues may simply be the result of insufficient GPU performance or memory bandwidth to drive the QHD display.

To me, the move to enable FDE by default in Lollipop seems like a reactionary move to combat the perception that Android is insecure or more prone to attack than iOS, even if that perception may not actually be accurate.

maybe but we'll not know in this case bc its so bad regardless lol

Heresiarch posted:

also i went ahead and nuked my n4 to get rid of the encryption and it's noticeably more responsive, but the benchmark tool i was using wasn't giving anything near consistent results so here's a random set

encrypted:

sequential read: 33.75 MB/sec
sequential write: 23.22 MB/sec
random read: 14.22 MB/sec
random write: 9.21 MB/sec

decrypted:

sequential read: 92.0 MB/sec
sequential write: 28.9 MB/sec
random read: 20.0 MB/sec
random write: 8.72 MB/sec

why are random writes faster when encrypted? why are there cryptography drivers listed on the android binaries page for the nexus 4 (and only the nexus 4) but they don't appear to be being used? who knows

why do u buy this crap
