With WSL there obviously is no GUI/graphics support for gaming, but while having this setup running, I did run a few Windows gaming tests to see if it would mark any differences on that front.

There was barely any performance difference from the W10Privacy changes when it came to gaming, just a few frames faster performance in some already fast-running games. The next time I do a Windows 10 vs. Linux gaming comparison will obviously be a much bigger assortment of titles tested.

The Golang performance barely changed due to W10Privacy with the notable exception of the build benchmark where W10Privacy greatly improved the performance due to the I/O operations.
