The 2.6.29 test definitely was run with 64 bit!!! Compare to:

The speed improvement is only possible using a 64 bit build. Different kernel do not matter for that. Maybe for 3d performance + intel benchmarks. Or maybe add 2.6.29/30 tests.

Unless we don't want Linux as a gaming platform.I know I want.
Hopefully, the nasty Intel driver regression will be fixed soon and Linux on Intel graphics will outperform MAC.
And since SQQLite regression is already fixed, soon we will be able to say that Ubuntu/Linux outperforms MAC in most aspects. Unless Snow Leopard can improve enough to keep up.
Anyway, the results were not of a big surprise, Linux 64 was, is and probably will be faster than any other OS. Only one test seems strange to me. The GnuPG performance.
Last year vs today the test was:
63.58 vs 91.86 vs 67.57 (OSX, 32bit, 64bit)
63.92 vs 67.22 vs 85.86
Look! back then OSX was similar with 64bit Ubuntu and 32bit sucked.
Today they changed position. 64bit sucks while 32bit approached OSX
Someone could give me a logical explanation plz?

Seven of the 29 tests changed their winner/loser status for Ubuntu by switching from 32 to 64-bit. Six tests became winners for Ubuntu 64 and 1 became a loser.
Overall,12 wins for Mac OS X,
4 wins for Ubuntu 32, and
13 wins for Ubuntu 64.
Ubuntu 64 wins.
I think if the graphics and SQLite performance were fixed then there really wouldn't be much of a performance gap for most desktop users to care about.

and to think that *ANY* other distro beats ubuntu hands down in performance...

Originally posted by Rip-Rip View PostThe major difference (which these benchs show) is the use of SSE by default in x86_64, which is way faster than x87 floating point unit.
That being said, encryption and video encoding tests also benefit from the additional x86_64 registers, so I expect that 32 bit code will still perform worse.
