Phoronix: Debian 6.0 Through Debian 9.0 Benchmarks

Continuing in our benchmarks of Debian 9, here is a comparison when re-testing 6.0.10 "Squeeze", Debian 7.11 "Wheezy", Debian 8.8 "Jessie", and the newly-released Debian 9.0 "Stretch".

Typo?
"Debian 7.11 was up next and it had the Linux 4.2 kernel"

Wouldn't it be kernel 3.2?

I have read the article with a slight interest. I am a tad too lazy to dive into the details so I choose to just ask here instead. Was all the tests executing the same binaries or was everything compiled and "prepared" on the system which the tests where run?

Thank you for the benchmark!

If you're in a pool of coders, the "sacrifice" is the guy that is forced to run debian stable. Whatever the objections are, they have maintained more of the proper spirit of GNU collection for longer than anyone, and they still are doing great. Even if it always seems they are 2 years late. Their code is written on stone tablets. I would support them more if they had an official store with shirts or beanies.
