    Phoronix: AMD Ryzen 9 3900X Benchmarks On 11 Linux Distributions

    Now that BIOS updates over the past month have resolved the early boot issue with Ryzen 3000 processors and thus the new AMD CPUs playing nicely with modern Linux distributions, here is the long-awaited benchmark comparison of the Ryzen 9 3900X + X570 system benchmarked across an array of different Linux distributions... In fact, 11 Linux OS releases in total were tested on this high-end 12-core / 24-thread desktop processor.

    Some of those performance differences are so drastic it's as if you were to buy a CPU 2 performance tiers down.

      Once again, good old boring Debian Buster more than holds its own. Very interesting results.

          It'd be nice to know what is so bad in Fedora that makes it the worst.

              What kind of magic does clear linux use and why not any other distro uses it???

                The only issue I can see is that on Selenium tests, Debian & Debian Testing are running Firefox 60, while the rest are running Firefox 68.

                I get that these are bone stock installs with the bundled stuff, but v60 represents 4% of the installed base, v68 represents 72%.

                Not a flaw in the test methods, just a heads up that the results for Debian may not represent what really happens today.

                  Probably they use CPU extensions not found on older processors that other distributions still wants to support.
                  Among other things.

                    I'm surprised how the rolling release Manjaro/Arch is behind in these. It seems there's something wrong with how they build their packages. Doesn't make sense for newer to be slower in pretty much all tests.
