Jbenchmark 2 ran, but ended early with uncaught exception(multiple change listeners not allowed)

daryl.com ... That is the same error I used to have when I had BlackBerryOS 4.0.0.160 on my BlackBerry 7280. "Multiple change listeners not allowed". I guess that was fixed in later versions of BlackBerryOS.

Decided to only record the main JBenchmark numbers for easier comparision, since all the other numbers are posted by people in this thread.

Mark, no 7290 posts?? Does it not work on 7290 or no one has yet tested? Any idea why one poster got test 1 to run on a 7250 and I could not? We have the same hardware and software version. Maybe it has something to do with the Today program or some other program running in the background.

Different carriers, possibly? Bell Mobility versus Verizon, for example. What carrier are you on?

Everyone, henceforth, please also mention your carrier :)
And whether or not you are running BES?

I am on Verizon on the 7250 and AT&T/Cingular on the 7100t.

edited 3/1/05: This is a great idea by the way. Had always wondered how my device is compared to the others. Now I know its not the worst (if i'm reading posts right :wink: ).

7290 OWNZ... :D

I took the highest values from each post and combined into a table:
