I know that Endeavour is about as close to Arch you can get without being vanilla Arch, but it's a bit misleading to call it "Arch" in a benchmarking video, especially when you check things like boot speed, storage, etc. Also I think going with Plasma for Endeavour nerfed it a bit extra, I think either going with Endeavour default (XFCE) or GNOME would be more fair.

@SifatUllah-12 5 месяцев назад

about the file copying test, I have a computer running Linux, and my laptop on Windows 11. And copying anything to / from my pendrive is faster than Windows, BUT, WITH ONE QUIRK. Idk why but in Linux, whenever I finish copying files to my pendrive, it takes some time when I try to eject it. But in Windows, as soon as the transfer is finished, I can immediately eject it. So ultimately, In Linux, its transfer time + eject time. Where in Windows, its only the transfer time. If anyone has any logical explanation for this please clarify.

@iijj22gg 5 месяцев назад

The Linux kernel makes your file available at it's new location faster by moving most of the data and updating the filesystem, while in the background it's still moving the rest of the data (like from the USB to your hard drive). Why? Developer obsession. If you didn't want to detach the drive right away, you wouldn't notice a thing.

@SifatUllah-12 5 месяцев назад

@iijj22gg What is "Developer Obsession"? And it's this a bit misleading? Like it shows the copying is complete, but if you try to eject it, is says "Do not remove, writing data to usb". Why not just show the real speed in the first place? I'm guessing the answer is "developer obsession", so, I'd be greatful if you clarify this term also.

@iijj22gg 5 месяцев назад

@@SifatUllah-12 Basically the devs who worked on this were obsessed with storage management, to the point where people have made debatable decisions. Although to further clarify, an entirely different set of developers worked on the GUI app you used to drag and drop the file, and I've only seen one or two file managers with a lingering visual indicating the kernel is still cleaning up in the background.

Copying in windows and linux is not the same. In Linux, the fact that the system shows copying completed does not mean that the process is finished. Even in the case of SSD, Linux still needs a few seconds in the background to save the cache. So unless you changed your configuration before the test, this one is not reliable.

@nipunamarasekara607 5 месяцев назад

I had the same experience. When windows says copying the file is done, it's done and device can be removed right away. But in linux systems it's still running in background for some reason. Until it properly finished user cannot safely eject the device.

@Dobaspl 5 месяцев назад

@@nipunamarasekara607 It's even worse when we talk about moving files. The system erases files from the source before providing a write to the target. If the connection is interrupted during this time, the files are lost (excluding recovery tools from the source). And if you turn off the cache, copying takes forever. But the cache is not the problem, Windows also uses it, the problem is that the GUI does not know that the copying is still in progress, but it should be.

I thought fedora 39 was on kernel 6.7?

@MT-nn2ii 4 месяца назад

I also noticed this when I wanted to choose my Linux distribution to replace Windows. I found the Fedora distribution particularly heavy and slow, I'm not sure why. So, "finally", i switched to Debian 12 + Gnome. It's not too bad for the moment.

would be great to run the arch test in gnome so we can rule out slight performance differences between kde and gnome

I have horrible battery life and personal hotspot network speed slowing down issues. Please help. (I use a laptop).

If you're using Linux, install and run TLP. There's a GUI version that's a little easier to understand than the command line version. Depending on how much of a performance hit you are willing to take, you can extend the battery life dramatically. I can double my laptop's battery life without a very noticeable performance hit but if need be, that time can be tripled or even quadrupled, with varying levels of performance impact.

@@bhargavjitbhuyan9394 I don't know what to tell you. You are never going to have better battery life if you aren't willing to sacrifice some performance. So you'll have to decide in the end what's more important but compromises will have to be made. I tried auto cpufreq and while it certainly didn't appear to affect performance, it didn't improve battery life by even 15minutes either.

@@Maxume I am talking about absolute performance dips. My laptop can easily play 4k60 yt videos in windows with the battery saver turned on. And on linux (my distro is endeavourOS, this issue doesn't occur in ubuntu but I don't like the ubuntu desktop environment called gnome and I want a dual boot system and also, I don't like snaps. I prefer kde) the videos have too many dropped frames. Why??

Graphics performance is going to be somewhat dependent on whether it's amd, intel or nvidia, and what application it is.

I did a fresh install of EndeavourOS a few days ago on a 25GB partition (I chose GNOME over KDE, changed nothing else regarding packages) and mounted /home from another partition. Installed nothing since then, did one update of packages and my root partition right now sits at ~7,3 of 25 GB. So you can get away with way less space then the mentioned 45GB (converted from the free space in GiB).

Love the video, it's great that your making linux related content, and in a simple format educational to less knowledgeable people, however I feel like you are missing the point with some of these, linux being just the kernel means that its so modular with what you can attach to it or remove from it as the whole OS, for example linux + gnu base which is common is running on all these distributions I believe, however not all use systemd, that can affect performance, another thing to note is that the file transfer test is mostly influenced by the file system used, endevour os by default uses btrfs, even though ext4 has faster transfer rates, endevour won out here, I don't know how you configured each. In conclusion I'd recommend talking about the specific parts of each system that might influence it, because linux in reality is like lego, it's programmer's/tinker's minecraft 2, you can create whatever you imagine, and you can hack it to do whatever you imagine. The video is newb friendly but I like to go into shallow detail just so the person listening has something to grip on to learn further.

You should try the graphics test with unigine dx11 running under wine. That was significantly faster than native opengl when I tried it (~10%)

I was going to say at the beginning of the video that the title must be changed, as EndevourOS is not Arch, and later on, it got confirmed in the tests.

@stuartedwards6996 5 месяцев назад

Any particular reason Windows 11 was not using the latest build? If you download the ISO from Microsoft it should be 23H2 (22631.3155)? If you are going to do tests like this you must try to be as fair as possible. You should also ensure that Core Isolation is disabled as Linux does not have a comarative feature as far as I'm aware and it does affect performance on Windows. I'm not a fan of Windows 11 (I'm still on 10) as I think is very meh.

@matthiasbendewald1803 5 месяцев назад

Great comparison, I love those videos, thank you! Also quite subjective, only some praising of Linux in there. What is missing is a good summary. All the numbers were quite over the place, my brain starts melting to compile this all to one coherent picture. I love the phoronix guys, they always put a geometric mean graph/table at the end, which will take all results and compile one mathematically fair summary out of it. Also gaming is very complex. There is so much going on, every game will behave different on the systems, so using one benchmark is not enough to make any conclusion that linux lags behind. I think that it still does, but not as clear as it seemed in this benchmark.

@MrFrog222 5 месяцев назад

Many of the tests like storage, battery and general performance can't really be measured on Endeavour OS to then say that its that way on Arch too because Arch is much less bloated.

@knipsi22 5 месяцев назад

Nice but it's difficult to compare Linux Distros. Different desktop environments come with different amounts of bloat, packaging formats are different and so on. And I would argue most distros don't have a "default" configuration. You are free to chose your DE, and often Distro versions with more up to date packages and Kernels. On every Distro you can install Flatpak or Snap or native.
