Here are some nodes-per-second ratings for the different versions on a G1 phone and a Nexus One phone. Android 2.2 (aka Froyo) features the Dalvik JIT compiler, which benefits the built-in Java engine, but not the native UCI engines.
Code: Select all
G1 Nexus One
Android 1.6 Android 2.2
BikJump Java built-in 2 KN/s 23 KN/s
BikJump v1.8 native 15 KN/s 85 KN/s
BikJump v2.1 native 28 KN/s 116 KN/s

I now also compiled stockfish v1.8 as native UCI engine for Android and asked Tord if I can make that binary available.

I talked with the stockfish team and they very kindly agreed to make the natively compiled UCI binary of stockfish1.8 available through their website.
