Why is Debian so fast?

That a very nice unit. How do you cool it? I don't see the cooling room/enclosure.

Hey Michael - are you planning a win margin statistics for phoronix-test-suite?

[oldgaro]

Antergos is crappy. Next time give us Arch benchs!

Thanks for the reviews. Yet again we see that a new microarchitecture is best served by newer distros and that an old version of Ubuntu isn't what you want to be running in your data center.

Why Antergos is missing in the firsts tests, the OpenMP tests?

It had build issues.

Phoronix: 8-Way Linux Distribution Comparison On A Dual Xeon Scalable Gold Server

While we routinely run various Linux distribution / operating system comparisons at Phoronix, they tend to be done on desktop class hardware and the occasional servers. This is our look at the most interesting enterprise-focused Linux distribution comparison to date as we see how Intel's Xeon Scalable platform compares on different GNU/Linux distributions when using the Tyan GT24E-B7106 paired with two Dual Xeon Gold 6138 processors. The tested configuration has 96GB of DDR4-2666 memory and 40 cores / 80 threads to see how different modern Linux distributions are affected with the latest-generation Xeon platform.
