> You missed the Cortex-A7 ;-)

I surely didn't miss ARM Ltd's today's announcement of the Cortex-A7 core :-) The reason it's not been on my list yet simply is that I hadn't read about the DMIPS figure for it. Doing so now I can see that it's as low as 1.9 DMIPS per MHz and core (and the figure for the Krait core is in that article as well). So this is the new revised list:

ARM Cortex-A7: 1.9
ARM Cortex-A8: 2.0
Qualcomm Scorpion: 2.1
Marvell Sheeva PJ4: 2.4
ARM Cortex-A9: 2.5
Qualcomm Krait: 3.3
ARM Cortex-A15: 3.5 (estimated)
