    That doesnt explain the "STILL". Unless there were also benchmarks for Fedora 29 present, which showed it beating Fedora 30. Regression is different from "further regression".

    Could you please throw the last Manjaro into the mix ? It is a big boy distro now. Gives people stable/less efforts alternative to maintaining arch by hand. Throw vanilla arch into the mix. I am curious as to where Arch or arch-based stand. Arch is closest to upstream so that is another insight to gain.
    It's October 31st, not April 1st.

    Manjaro is a joke.

    Still going wrong way? The benchmarks are only for Fedora 30 and 31. It does not show that it is a continuance of a past trend.

    Secondly, in most benchmarks the results are close and in many Fedora is beating Ubuntu.

    The displayed results dont reflect the headline.
    No, you are not the only one. I didn't see these "The sky is falling" results in the benchmarks either. So yeah. Some are a bit slower, but regressing? It is all so close to Ubuntu, that I'm wondering what the hubbub is really about.

    I'm not even considering Clear Linux. I see that as a showcase. A niche distro, not a workhorse.

    Yes. I browsed two different mirrors and couldn't find it.

    Blame Fedora's insane super-secure compilation flags:

    CFLAGS='-O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Werror=format-security -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -Wp,-D_GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS -fexceptions -fstack-protector-strong -grecord-gcc-switches -specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-hardened-cc1 -specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-annobin-cc1 -m64 -mtune=generic -fasynchronous-unwind-tables -fstack-clash-protection -fcf-protection'

    LDFLAGS='-Wl,-z,relro -Wl,--as-needed -Wl,-z,now -specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-hardened-ld'
