Intel Tiger Lake Performance Between Windows 10 vs. Ubuntu 21.04 Linux

Out of 120 benchmarks ran, Ubuntu 21.04 had the first place finish 60% of the time.

Here is a side-by-side look at all of the test cases with a measurable difference between Windows and Linux. In some cases there are some extreme differences for both Windows and Linux but that tended to be isolated to a few specific areas. Ubuntu 21.04 tended to show off the best in the heavy multi-threaded workloads from this Core i7 1185G7 laptop.

Or if taking the geometric mean of all 120 benchmarks, Ubuntu 21.04 came out to being 9% faster than Windows 10 overall.
