5 Years of Linux Kernel Releases Benchmarked

Posted by samzenpus on from the line-them-up dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Phoronix has published benchmarks of the past five years worth of Linux kernel releases, from the Linux 2.6.12 through Linux 2.6.37 (dev) releases. The results from these benchmarks of 26 versions show that, for the most part, new features haven't affected performance."

    I find this hard to believe, what with 2010 being the year of Linux on the desktop and all.
