    Ubuntu 7.04 to 8.10 Benchmarks: Is Ubuntu Getting Slower?

    Posted on Tuesday, October 28 2008 @ 05:26:06 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck


    With the release of Ubuntu 8.10 coming out later this week we decided to use this opportunity to explore how the performance of this desktop Linux operating system has evolved over the past few releases. We performed clean installations of Ubuntu 7.04, Ubuntu 7.10, Ubuntu 8.04, and Ubuntu 8.10 on a Lenovo ThinkPad T60 notebook and used the Phoronix Test Suite to run 35 tests on each release that covered nine different areas of the system. After spending well more than 100 hours running these tests, the results are now available and our findings may very well surprise you.

    Check it out at Phoronix.
