Description:
Speedy is the award winning benchmark utility for PalmOS based devices (on January 19th 2004, Speedy was listed number 22 in TrackerDog's Top 100 Popular Palm Softwares).
Speedy performs three resource taking routines to measure the real CPU speed of your device and benchmark it with other PalmOS based devices.
Speedy is especially useful in different cases:
- To check that your PalmOS based device behaves and performs like it should;
- To see the impact of CPU down/over-clocking upon your device's performance;
- To really compare different devices and benchmark them.
Your device's performance is ranked on several charts against baseline measurements of other common PalmOS compatible devices.
Speedy reports both a CPU frequency and a relative index (100% is for the Palm Vx at 20 MHz).
Description:
v7.0:
- Added detection of Speedy running in the StyleTap Palm OS emulator for Windows mobile devices (www.styletap.com)
- Added benchmark values for the HTC S710 device (Windows Mobile 6.0 for Smartphone), running Speedy inside the StyleTap platform
- Added benchmark values for the Palm Treo 755p device
- Updated the benchmark value for the Palm Treo 680 (the previous reference record for the Graph Test was 0.1 sec too pessimistic on the average)
- Refined the number of devices' counter, it was previously counting twice the same device when this device could have benchmark results in portrait or landscape modes (for example, the Palm TX was in this case)
- Added a bunch of exotic devices in the database, even if no benchmark results were ever provided for them, so as to have an exhaustive database of Palm OS based devices in Speedy's knowledge base

This is a great program. Supposedly my palm is running 20% faster than the preprogrammed benchmark!

Useful program & really high quality. This is another freeware that I would gladly pay for as commercial software.- Excellent.

Excellent. Ran perfectly on Palm Vx with OS 4.1. Detected speed increase with Freeboost (also recommended).
