Performance of iOS app vs calculator

IOs version runs faster than the real calculator, even the G2 version. This is due to the fact that, as stated above, it is not an emulator but the same calculator code compiled for IOs...

So, what you get is the equivalent of running code on a 386 on one side and a 486 (or pentium) on the other side.

Prime G2 is FAST (you have probably seen the benchmarks on other threads), but an iPhone CPU is faster (in Ghz range, not in 500Mhz as G2), giving a lot of extra boost.

However, a real calculator has a real keyboard which makes a big difference.

Since HP has no financial grounds to use the iPhone CPU
I have to buy the fastest iPhone alive...
OR
Maybe the new Snapdragon 1000 on a laptop (2019)?
but
dreams aside. Cyrille, the limits of iteration, recursion, etc has to be lifted
The Prime is not a small RAM calculator
Say...100 -> (2^31)-1
okay?
