Wow, that is a pretty nice setup :-)

Don't worry, I am still happy with my small custer . I saw your setup (on the link in your signature), wow that is great!
I had some old phones crunching in the past as well. Their performance was something like 1.000 to 3.500 points per day (depending on phone). After having a swollen battery at one of these, I decided to retire the phones and to get something different. On your website I saw that you replaced some batteries/run without battery. Seems like you solved that problem/risk.

One of my N2 now generates about 13.000-16.000 points per day (so one N2 has higher performance than my 4 old phones together ). They exact amount of points depends on the project. In average the 5x N2 are at 75.000points/day.

If you focus on threads running, I am sure a phone cluster is more efficient than a N2 cluster (more threads/watt, like you wrote). The N2 cluster might be ahead regarding FLOPS/watt.

And yeah, it would be great if you could use arm gpus for crunching.

Uhhh, Linux x86_64. Don't have Linux though. If anyone compiled the code, I'd like to try it on my Andoird TV-box. Milkyway's WUs are like SCC, I'm sure the TV-box can handle it.

Thank you Mr aaabaaab for posting this, its a very useful comparison!

I wonder how the N2 would fare in WCG compared with its X86 cousin, the H2+?

For a while I have been testing various devices to find out which ones get the most WU's done compared to the price I had to pay for them. In case anyone is interested here are few values for WCG Open Pandemics:

Galaxy S8: 12 WU in 24hrs or 6.600 points. Cost: about 40€ if you buy it with a shattered glass on Ebay
Galaxy S9: 23 WU`s or 12.700 points. Cost: around 70€
Galaxy S10: 23 WU's or 13.200 points. Cost: around 100€
Huawei P20: 5 WU's or 2.700 points. Cost: unknown
Sony Xperia Z3: 2-3 WU's if run at 60 degress C. Cost: unknown
Intel NUC10i7FNK: up to 55 WU's. Cost: around 500€

I find that the Galaxys run best at 4/8 cores at 80%. I keep them on a notebook cooler and have them run 24/7 since they consume only around 3 Watts each. The NUC runs on 12/12 but only at 55% cpu time since it gets hot easily although equiped with a fan. Apparently it wasn't designed for crunching. The temperature peaks now at round 75 degress C. The Galaxys and the Huawei peak at round 32 degress. Didn't root them as I want them to live long.

From my point of view the Galaxy S9 is the best compromise at the moment. Does anyone have values for devices which can compete with or are even better than the S9? Will keep my eyes open for the Odroid N2 but it is almost not available in Europe.
