PyBench benchmark with settings of Total For Average Test Times. Ubuntu 22.10 was the fastest.

PyPerformance benchmark with settings of Benchmark: go. Fedora Workstation 37 was the fastest.

PyPerformance benchmark with settings of Benchmark: chaos. Fedora Workstation 37 was the fastest.

PyPerformance benchmark with settings of Benchmark: nbody. Fedora Workstation 37 was the fastest.

PyPerformance benchmark with settings of Benchmark: raytrace. Fedora Workstation 37 was the fastest.

PyPerformance benchmark with settings of Benchmark: json_loads. Ubuntu 22.10 was the fastest.

PyPerformance benchmark with settings of Benchmark: crypto_pyaes. Fedora Workstation 37 was the fastest.

Fedora Workstation 37 ships Python 3.11 by default which is why it led in a number of the Python benchmarks.

PyPerformance benchmark with settings of Benchmark: regex_compile. Fedora Workstation 37 was the fastest.

PyPerformance benchmark with settings of Benchmark: pickle_pure_python. Fedora Workstation 37 was the fastest.

HelloSystem 0.8 ships Python 3.9 by default and tended to be much slower than the Python builds shipped on Fedora, Arch/EndeavourOS, and Ubuntu.

PHPBench benchmark with settings of PHP Benchmark Suite. Ubuntu 22.10 was the fastest.

The PHP performance on helloSystem 0.8 was also significantly slower than that on the various Linux distributions tested on this AMD Zen 4 system.

Git benchmark with settings of Time To Complete Common Git Commands. EndeavourOS Rolling was the fastest.

Even when measuring various Git operations on a static snapshot of the GTK Git repository was slower with helloSystem compared to the Linux distributions tested.

Geometric Mean Of All Test Results benchmark with settings of Result Composite, helloSystem 0.8 Benchmarks vs. Linux Performance. Fedora Workstation 37 was the fastest.

From this selection of benchmarks carried out across helloSystem 0.8 and the three Linux distributions, Fedora Workstation 37 was the fastest overall while Arch Linux powered EndeavourOS and Ubuntu 22.10 were delivering similar performance and then the FreeBSD 13.1 based helloSystem was the slowest at least for this set of benchmarks run and on the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X (Zen 4) desktop hardware.

If you are running FreeBSD 13.1 or helloSystem, be sure to comment in the forums how you have found the performance for your workloads/tasks or what have been your key motivators in doing so.
