Ubuntu 10.04 Alpha 2 vs. Early Fedora 13 Benchmarks

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the flavor-of-the-moment dept.

Given that early benchmarks of the Lucid Lynx were less than encouraging, Phoronix decided to take the latest alpha out for a spin and has set it side-by-side with an early look at Fedora 13. "Overall, there are both positive and negative performance changes for Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Alpha 2 in relation to Ubuntu 9.10. Most of the negative regressions are attributed to the EXT4 file-system losing some of its performance charm. With using a pre-alpha snapshot of Fedora 13 and the benchmark results just being provided for reference purposes, we will hold off on looking into greater detail at this next Red Hat Linux update until it matures."

    Why compare Ubuntu with anything? In my experience it's Debian, with a horrible colour scheme and a screwed up GUI. It's gone downhill so fast it's been like a toboggan ride.

    They probably do. But the parts for the mac boards are sourced from different suppliers, which is what makes all the difference.
