Intel's Clear Linux was showing some pretty significant gains for the Liquid-DSP digital signal processing software on the AMD Ryzen 9 9950X system thanks to its optimizations. Ubuntu 24.04 LTS tended to be in last place.

OpenSSL benchmark with settings of Algorithm: ChaCha20. Arch Linux was the fastest.
OpenSSL benchmark with settings of Algorithm: ChaCha20-Poly1305. Arch Linux was the fastest.
ClickHouse benchmark with settings of 100M Rows Hits Dataset, First Run / Cold Cache. Clear Linux 42170 was the fastest.
ClickHouse benchmark with settings of 100M Rows Hits Dataset, Second Run. Clear Linux 42170 was the fastest.
ClickHouse benchmark with settings of 100M Rows Hits Dataset, Third Run. Clear Linux 42170 was the fastest.

Clear Linux maintained a small lead in running the ClickHouse database binaries atop that Intel Linux distribution.

GROMACS benchmark with settings of Implementation: MPI CPU, Input: water_GMX50_bare. Arch Linux was the fastest.

The results for GROMACS didn't vary much besides Fedora Workstation 40 being the slowest.
