Instead of wasting time in stupid polls about which distro to benchmark I do wish that phoronix would present more relevant benchmarks.
And by that I mean I really have no interest in how very old opengl games that no one plays perform in win/linux etc...
I'm aware that to test graphic drivers games are the best option BUT I see time and time again the same games being used in system benchmark comparisons between ubuntu/win/mac
My suggestiong: keep 1 or 2 games but increase relevant stuff like h264 encoding and browser html5 performance
You can grab firefox 23 and test it's html5 performance across the board in the 3 different systems, win, mac and ubuntu...
browser benchmarks and video encoding and I'm sure there are a bunch more relevant benchmarks
