Windows Subsystem For Linux / WSL2 Performance With The AMD Ryzen 9 5900X

The WSL performance was comparable to that of Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS for Intel's OpenVINO. (OpenVINO 2021.1's build isn't yet compatible with Ubuntu 20.10.)

Apache Cassandra was deadly slow with WSL1 while WSL2 takes it to just over half the performance of bare metal Ubuntu.
