Is Windows 7 Actually Faster Than Ubuntu 10.04?

The chart colours for CI7 on the X-Plane chart (page 9) are around the wrong way.
I'm also irked that one can't compare between CPUs (to help make a purchase decisions for future CPUs/video cards) as the memory amount and video card changes for each system.

Scheduler performance (average, worse):
Linux: 0.009mS 0.3mS
Windows: 2mS scheduling latency 16mS
Windows looks like a big, fat cow. If you cannot backup what you said just be a nice troll and be quiet, please.
Originally posted by Remco View PostI thought the conclusion was that Windows and Ubuntu were pretty much the same, with some wins for Windows and some wins for Ubuntu. Michael actually says so specifically. On the last page, he quotes a myth that has been busted. Maybe he should have explicitly said "This is clearly false; the performance is pretty much the same."?

I'm setting up the PTS on Win7 right now myself, and I see that UT2004 isn't integrated into it yet, so I can understand why it wasn't included in the test then. When will it be implemented, by the way?
Also, a test based on Unreal Engine 3 would be awesome since a lot of current day games run on it... However, I'm not aware of any UE3 games on Linux, although it's obviously possible (we even saw UT3 screenshots on Linux...).
