Some new performance benchmark data about current mobile phones was yesterday published here (previous test is here), showing significant differences in graphics performance between the terminal platforms. The benchmark tests 2D and 3D graphics performance on Java platform, so the result mostly tells about the quality of JVM implementation and terminal's screen drawing capabilities.

However, the test doesn't tell much about the performance of native applications on Symbian platform. It would be interesting to see the results of the same test when running a native instead of Java application – how much is the overhead of JVM? What I also would like to benchmark is the disk I/O performance of a Symbian terminal, for both internal and removable media.

Do you know some other publicly available benchmark data or tests for smartphone performance?
