Hi Vince,

No worries - just wanted to make sure we weren't missing the obvious! Might also be worth shuffling the sequencing of the tests (armasm, armasm2, libc), see if that has any impact. I'm not intimate with ARM cache details, but with a write-back cache you could be stalling on cacheline evictions later in the test. Another safety would be to perform the tests in different memory regions, with a complete cache flush and invalidate between each run. Not saying there's anything wrong with your code, just know its easy to get false results from simple benchmark code. Memory tests are another one where the obvious approach is often wrong.
