The latest Linux benchmarks I ran this weekend in welcoming the new Phoronix Premium subscribers participating in our Black Friday deal are some MacBook Air benchmarks on Fedora 21, Fedora 22, and Fedora 23.

From the same Apple MacBook Air with Intel Core i5 4250U Haswell CPU with HD Graphics 5000, 4GB of RAM, and 120GB SSD, benchmarks of clean installs of Fedora 21/22/23 were carried out plus with Fedora 23 having all stable updates as of this weekend.

These tests were mostly done for looking at Fedora's evolving performance. From a very different system, back in October I did Fedora 20 through Fedora 23 benchmarks. There is also this month's Antergos, Manjaro, CentOS, Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora & OpenSUSE Performance Showdown.


For the most part, there were no huge changes in performance.
