Ubuntu 14.04/16.04 vs. Ubuntu Bash On Windows 10 Anniversary Performance

Ubuntu 14.04/16.04 vs. Ubuntu Bash On Windows 10 Anniversary Performance: When Microsoft and Canonical brought Bash and Ubuntu's user-space to Windows 10 earlier this year I ran some preliminary benchmarks of Ubuntu on Windows 10 versus a native Ubuntu installation on the same hardware. Now that this "Windows Subsystem for Linux" is part of the recent Windows 10 Anniversary Update, I've carried out some fresh benchmarks of Ubuntu running atop Windows 10 compared to Ubuntu running bare metal.
