Ubuntu 21.04 significantly faster than windows 10 on Threadripper
This is probably because Linux has a much finer tuned scheduler for multiples cores and multiples threads per-core. Linux dominates the HPC market for more than a decade and, as current workstations approach features of supercomputers from decades ago, the better scheduler begins to shine.<p>Also, considering how much Linux dominates on servers, it is very likely that IO latency or throughput, depending on the case, is top.<p>I don&#x27;t expect windows to be better except for some memory heavy applications given it is mostly used on the desktop and has probably memory management features that are adequate for this use case.<p>It is a shame that for AAA games we still live with a virtual monopoly controlled by the option which is not the highest performant. Specially considering how gamers like to brag about their machines and setup to extract the last drop of performance. It would be interesting if gamers forced the industry to bow to the most advanced solution. Developers, HPC, servers and embedded people were successful doing exactly that.
