Sun Ultra 20 M2 Linux Performance

,----[ Quote ]
| On Monday I posted Geekbench results for my Sun Ultra 20 M2 running
| Solaris and Windows. Afterwards, I received a number of requests
| asking how Linux performed on the same hardware.

(On Sun hardware, of course)

| Conclusion
| 
| Solaris, once again, is faster overall (although only 7.5% faster
| Linux, as opposed to 15% faster than Windows); Solaris (and the Sun
| Studio compiler) is faster in the floating point category while Linux
| (and GCC) is faster in the stream category.

Seen it the other day, but waited for a parellel benchmark that involves
Linux. The results are unsurprising.
