- On Q: QNX OS aces performance benchmarks
f you've ever wondered why the QNX Neutrino OS is popular in applications that demand fast, predictable performance, have I got some benchmarks for you.
Recently, Dedicated Systems Experts, a professional services company that specializes in real-time systems, performed independent evaluations of the QNX Neutrino OS on three different platforms: ARM Cortex A8, Intel Atom, and Pentium.
After putting QNX Neutrino through its paces, they determined that it offers:
Excellent architecture
Very fast and predictable performance
User-friendly development environment
Above average documentation
Support for many embedded platforms
In fact, QNX scored 9 out of 10 on the dimensions of architecture, documentation, tools, and performance.
The performance benchmarks, which are especially rigorous, gauge whether an OS has what it takes for applications that have zero tolerance for missed deadlines. These tests include thread-switch latency and interrupt latency.10-08-11 02:51 AMLike 0 - I know what you mean. The telco I work for sells the xoom and iconia tablets, and I have to work with ipads too. None of them compares to my playbook in speed and smoothness.10-08-11 08:25 AMLike 0
- I own an ipad and asus tranformer. Qnx demolishes honeycomb. I feel like over time (even a few days) android just gets really sluggish. The ipad is only good because apple has zillions of apps. Without all those it would be useless. I can't wait to start programming for the playbook. First I have to learn how lol.

I think 349 would be a great price point.And at that price Playbook can compete with both Ipad and Kindle Fire.10-08-11 10:41 PMLike 0
