Ubuntu 10.04 Alpha 2 vs. Early Fedora 13 Benchmarks 157

Posted by ScuttleMonkey from the flavor-of-the-moment dept.
Given that early benchmarks of the Lucid Lynx were less than encouraging, Phoronix decided to take the latest alpha out for a spin and has set it side-by-side with an early look at Fedora 13. "Overall, there are both positive and negative performance changes for Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Alpha 2 in relation to Ubuntu 9.10. Most of the negative regressions are attributed to the EXT4 file-system losing some of its performance charm. With using a pre-alpha snapshot of Fedora 13 and the benchmark results just being provided for reference purposes, we will hold off on looking into greater detail at this next Red Hat Linux update until it matures."

[sigh] Yes, but any helicopter that crashes from ABOVE 35 feet must also travel THROUGH 35 feet, thus a 35-foot test elevation should substitute for most helicopter crashes. One could certainly argue that a 5-foot test would effectively sample more scenarios than a 35-foot test, so perhaps they should test based upon that height instead. When will science learn that if you just use the right logic no one has to die.
