Hi,
I'm trying to understand how the frequency of a processor has an influence on how quickly a task will be completed.
I've done some tests on a PXA270 for the company i'm working for and it appears that if I use a frequency, which is twice another, then the time required to complete a task is divided by two.
I'm a little surprised with that result, it seems 'too simple', so I'm trying to figure out how I could explain it.
For the test I just made the processor compelte a loop, also i'm not sure it's the best way to test the processor.
Any idea on how I could explain this result, or maybe what kind of test I could run to go further.
Thanks,
