I have not tried them in desktop setup, but in batch compile performance
difference there is a very noticeable difference between Tegra2 running
armv5tel or Tegra2 running armv7hl for any larger compile job even when
running the same kernel.

Perhaps the difference is less visible on Cortex A8 devices such as
Allwinner A10, I do not know. Have not measured on the Mele yet but will
as soon as we have a sufficiently recent kernel that boots with LAN and
USB or SATA.
