Dell XPS 13: Windows 10 vs. Linux Distribution Benchmarks

Windows was also running very well with the Stockfish chess engine benchmark.

Ubuntu on WSL under Windows 10 ended up being the fastest environment for C-Ray multi-threaded ray-tracing.

Primesieve also was the fastest under Windows 10.

And again in Y-Cruncher, Windows 10 was faster than the four Linux distributions benchmarked.

While in the case of the AOBench renderer, Intel's own Clear Linux stack yielded much faster performance than the others.
