Core i7-4750HQ has 4 Cores
Just for the record: The Intel Core i7-4750HQ has 4 cores and is capable to run 8 threads. But you can, of course, force Intel to correct the ARK entry to 8 cores.

On-topic:
I almost get goosebumps when I think about how close we are to a X-less desktop. Unfortunately I'll probably have to leave Xfce for GNOME. Let's hope Classic works.
So while it looks 'bad', it's a manageable effort to port one of the sweeter-looking DEs completely over to GTK, if they really chose to do it....100% XFCE on Wayland/GTK... definitely has a nice ring to it.
This also re-iterates the importance of getting XWayland stable/merged, hopefully into X 1.15. Ignoring XWayland will only hinder Wayland/Weston/et al adoption.Last edited by MartinN; 08 October 2013, 04:17 AM.

It is slower!Originally posted by phoronixThis testing is similar in nature to our original Ubuntu XMir testing of comparing Ubuntu Linux with a Mir/XMir instance running versus an X.Org Server without anything else. The current XMir performance has improved thanks in large part to the composite bypass support, but already the test results in this article show the XWayland performance with common Linux-native OpenGL workloads being quite good.

It is slower!
I hope further Wayland and XWayland tweaks makes it faster.
Would also be nice to see a comparison against XMir.
