Linux 3.2 To 3.8 Kernels With Intel Ivy Bridge Graphics
The Reaction Quake 3 performance was flat-lined for Ivy Bridge between Linux 3.2 and 3.8 kernels.
Similar to Padman, the Smokin' Guns performance also saw a regression during development of the Linux 3.6 kernel for Intel open-source Linux graphics.
The VDrift racing game performance has improved with succeeding the Linux kernel upgrades, although the Linux 3.8 Git kernel is slightly slower than Linux 3.7 stable for the Core i7 3770K.
