The benchmark numbers for the Compact Framework on ARM make this a lot more interesting. I used it on PowerPC (the XBox 360 .NET runtime used by XNA is based on the Compact Framework), and I was uncertain whether the issues were related to the PowerPC architecture. It looks like the Compact Framework is just bad.

I wonder if this is the same thing that's used in WP7. Bad news if it is, I guess...

The compact framework has traditionally been horrible and kind of a joke. I hope MS has either ported the proper .NET framework or greatly improved the compact framework for WP7, if not it makes the choice of no native code support even worse.
