A then-representative $200USD device had 4-8 slow (in-order, low-cache) cores, ~2GiB of RAM, and relatively slow MLC NAND flash storage. Recall that single-core performance most directly translates into speed on the web. Chip design choices and silicon economics are the defining feature of the still-growing Performance Inequality Gap.
