Windows Subsystem For Linux Performance At The End Of 2019
In pure CPU bound workloads, WSL/WSL2 can generally perform well and deliver comparable results to bare metal Linux.
The Golang performance can be faster under WSL than Windows itself, except for HTTP performance taking a hit from Windows Subsystem for Linux.
Windows 10 19008 seems to be offering faster performance with Java than Windows 10 18362 even when using the same OpenJDK build. As for the WSL performance with Java, the results were quite mixed.
