Fedora 12 vs. Ubuntu 9.10 Benchmarks

,----[ Quote ]
| In many of the tests Ubuntu 9.10 had carried 
| the lead -- both by small and large margins -- 
| but the Karmic Koala had stumbled when it came 
| to the OpenGL performance, PostgreSQL, and NASA 
| NPB. Of those areas, the OpenGL performance is 
| the most intriguing with such a dramatic 
| difference when using the same exact graphics 
| driver from NVIDIA, which we will continue to 
| explore and run other OpenGL tests available 
| through the Phoronix Test Suite.

Fedora 12 Beta Chock Full of Enhancements

,----[ Quote ]
| Speed is a key issue for all Linux distros, and
| Fedora is taking an interesting approach by
| compiling all of its software for i686 with
| 'special' optimization for Intel Atom. What
| that means is instead of the typical generic
| x86 compilation, all apps could potentially run
| faster. Fedora now does have a specific netbook
| Moblin graphical interface and a Fedora 12
| Moblin Fedora Remix too -- who said Fedora (or
| Red Hat) wasn't interested in netbooks or the
| Linux desktop?
