Anand, if you could take a look at wifi again that be great. I've found it's not as good as with the last version of HC that the Prime was running. I had a horrible time with netflex last night; seems very hit or miss.
I'm sure it's a little smoother on a quad core with serious graphical power, but it's no slouch on the Galaxy Nexus either. It stutters a little, but not that much.
If it makes you feel better, I'm running it on my Nexus one. It works great except for the camera, I just can't seem to get it to work. I do want to upgrade at some point though.
"In particular, bringing up the task switcher on the Prime is much smoother than it is on the Galaxy Nexus."
This isn't because of the hardware, this is because the task switcher was fixed in 4.03. Using ROM's based on 4.03 are night and day faster at using the task switcher. I'm sure the prime is faster, but this speedup is software, not hardware.

It's amazing that Android still hasn't caught up with the 5 year old original iPhone in this area.LordSojar - Friday, January 13, 2012 - link

Will there be an article with more benchmarks with ICS on the Prime? I'd be interested.
