Thread: 3490 X 3790 Benchmarks and more

@Kanupus and ASTX,

None of the gps that I took the test have CN North America installed, only the map of my country, nothing more. So understand that the data for route calculations are standard and are embedded in the firmware, but it may be different in other continents. Anyway if the system presents these routes and do the calculation shows that this embedded in the firmware, independent of maps (perhaps only of the base map).
The problem in relation to the results is that they vary in the unit itself, just knew it. So the values ​​can not be taken as absolute and are not as stable as I thought. Either way can be good for something, I hope.
My suggestion for the test: turn on the GPS, enable the GPS Simulation and wait a few minutes for all the internal processes of launch to finish. Thus the processor is completely released for testing. Then make several tests and select the one that has the best values​​.
Following these directives, redid my tests and values ​​greatly improved. I will present only the first line of each group of routes calculated (the remainder improved in proportion):

Nuvi 3790: Long: 3836 ms, Medium: 341 ms, Short: 63 ms
Nuvi 3490: Long: 2231 ms, Medium: 208 ms, Short: 49 ms
Zumo 350: Long: 2243 ms Medium: 210 ms, Short: 41 ms (350 i V6 2GB 64 MB)

What I could observe from these measurements is that my 3490 has a much faster processor than the 3790, a relief, because I thought my 3490 was a 3790 remanufactured by Garmin or distributors, lol. Just regrettable that Garmin removed the magnetometer of my series. Does anyone have a 3490 with this item of hardware? (test in Diagnostics Page)
From the result also gives to infer that the Zumo 350 probably has the same processor of the 3490, as the benchmark values ​​are almost the same, which makes sense in terms of production scale, cost savings and type of gps (road) ..
