A lot of people here seemed excited for these chips. It’ll be very interesting to see the gaming performance as this could bring in an entire new segment of portable devices running Linux if powerful enough to deliver solid battery life and CPU performance.

    Not what i am saying. I said that it is not a given, that translation means less performance.

    In theory you can achieve similar or even higher performance, all depending on how well or how bad the original machine code is. Especially when you can optimize it for a specific architecture or even a specific CPU.

    And yes ARM has shown to be more power efficient then x86 CPUs even on higher load (not just low powered embedded stuff).
