Two SOCs speed comparison

Hi,
I am new to ARM hardware, but trying to understand the speed difference between the two SOCs working at the same CPU frequency, yielding times different results.
Given these two devices:
1. OLPC XO 1.75, using Marvell Armada 610 SOC @ 800MHz, running Fedora Linux
2. Android tablet Pandigital Novel using Samsung S3C6410 @ 800 MHz., running Android 2.0
The same benchmark (Squeak Smalltalk tinyBenchmark [1]) was run on both, using the same Squeak VM interpreter code (well, maybe compiler versions and flags were slightly different, but this was GCC anyway).
Marvell yielded 45,000,000 bytecodes/sec; 1,600,000 sends/sec
while Samsung only 15,000,000/500,000 that is, three times slower.
See [2], [3] where this was discussed
Datasheet search shows that Samsung is ARMv6 [4], and Marvell is ARMv7 [5]
Is it the core version difference that results in such speed difference, or is that possibly the tablet firmware that throttles the CPU down?
I am the current developer of Squeak/Cog VM port to Android, and I collected information about the same benchmark that people ran on various Android devices [6].
It looks like another 800MHz device (Eken M009, VIA core) comes close to Pandigital, and all 1GHz devices show consistently higher speeds, yet this is below the OLPC results.
Thanks for any ideas.

I'm not sure, but that could be due to the DDR3 of the OLPC !
LPDRAM is not very fast on mobile.
You should try a bench that only do some computation in a small amount of memory to see of the problem come's from the CPU.
