Android Testing
Currently, if you run stock MAME on any Android device using OpenGL ES 3.1 drivers, you will not get 100% framerate on any 80's game (even with frameskipping).
However, if the Android device you use supports OpenGL desktop class drivers (such as OpenGL 4.5), you'll get half descent results. Only the Pixel C & the latest Nvidia Shield devices have support for this driver that I know of.
My Nexus 9 (which has the Tegra 4 K1 Dual Core 64bit 2.3GHz CPU/GPU) can only manage around 75% framerate on Galaxian (using OpenGL ES 3.1 drivers, does not support other).
Roll on Vulkan supported devices (and hopefully MAME support) in the future :P

Note: if you wish to test this yourself, ensure you have a keyboard plugged in and use command line only (as GUI navigation is forked due to lack of touch screen support).
