FreeBSD 12 & DragonFlyBSD 5.6 Running Well On The AMD Ryzen 7 3700X + MSI X570 GODLIKE
With Golang's HTTP tests, it was interesting to note that FreeBSD 12.0 was much slower than the others. DragonFlyBSD 5.6.2's Go HTTP performance was right behind the two Linux distributions tested.
But at least outside of the HTTP stack, the FreeBSD Golang performance was competitive with the Linux distributions under test and actually outperforming DragonFlyBSD.
When firing up a few of the OpenJDK Java benchmarks, the BSDs on this Ryzen 7 3700X were holding their ground against Linux.
John The Ripper performed the best on FreeBSD 12 with its default Clang compiler.
The best x265 video encode performance was also found to be on FreeBSD 12.0.
