performance by distro

phx@lemmy.ca to Linux@lemmy.ml – 1 points –

Does anyone know where to find some good measurements of performance differences between common distros (with like hardware and config).

I'm interested to see if some perform better than others due to optimization etc

This might be controversial, but I don't think performance between distributions is really worth considering unless you have a very niche hardware requirement.

Features and community really make the difference.

I agree. I doubt distros have meaningful differences in performance, though there might be some outliers.

I have noticed different distributions have different boot times? I remember arch being a lot faster than Ubuntu. (Maybe due to choosing to have everything included and enabled by default, or more bare bones distributions).
