On top of our hardware reviews and comparisons at Phoronix we
also cover and compare the latest ATI and NVIDIA drivers along with some
of the other popular software packages; however, we have decided to
feature Linux kernel performance comparisons with each major release. We
will be covering some of the major highlights with each release as well as
comparing its performance in a variety of tests against recent kernels.
The intent of these articles will be to provide users with a better
understanding for some of the prominent changes as well as to see how the
performance is affected in some of our commonly used benchmarks. Without
further ado, we present our kernel comparison for the Linux 2.6.20-rc6
kernel!
Check it out
at Phoronix.
