I’m also having terrible performance issues with the Samsung Galaxy S, using Samsung’s 2.2 OS.
I also have a Motorola XOOM, (Honeycomb 3.0), runs beautifully on there.
I’ve disabled almost everything in my game - all my animations, almost all my listeners, and narrowed it down to the ragdoll code. I’ve made a test application, using the ragdoll code from here:
http://developer.anscamobile.com/forum/2010/10/29/new-corona-any-radgoll-examples
You’ll need gameUI.lua, set to 60fps to really see the difference.
Just touch the white square to spawn a new ragdoll.
Galaxy S:
1 and 2 ragdolls: 60fps
3 ragdolls: 30-40fps
4 ragdolls: 30fps
On the XOOM, I can spawn over 30 and fling them all over the screen and it still runs at 60fps. The extra core can’t be doing THAT much…
And yes, my frame rate counter is a little off, but it gives you the general idea…
