IMO, Android is not even using the full potential of Nexus 10's CPU/GPU. most probably due to drivers.
next update is going to be a blast

In highly multithreaded benchmarks, yes. In real-world use, no. In typical real-world use, rarely is more than one core worth of processing used... three or four core use is extremely rare. And in such typical use situations, the more powerful the single core is, the better, and that will change the order of what you listed (for example, the dual core S4 will easily jump to at least 4th place in your list).
Why are two Ferraris better than four Honda Civics? If you can grasp that, you can understand.

It is very common for multiple cores to be used. Take for example watching a movie via internet. There is the video software which probably involves a couple of processes, and there is the communication stack, the Android OS, Linux maitenance processes, etc.....its all very busy in there even when not much is going on.In highly multithreaded benchmarks, yes.

[I am a professional Linux sysadmin...
wow - professional........... impresssive........that enhances your credibilty.
If what your saying is true, then the android engineers don't know what they are doing
and hardware manufactures are wasting our money selling us cores that aren't used.
