Phoronix published Fedora 12 vs. Ubuntu 9.10 Benchmarks
They claim they took Fedora 12 candidate release, but AFAIK there is no Fedora 12 RC, right?
If they used Fedora 12 Beta are these number comparable with real Fedora 12 performance numbers when Fedora 12 ships? Aren't there some debugging features turned on in Rawhide (Fedora 12 beta) kernel? Are other packages in Fedora 12 also suffering from some speed penalty?
Still Fedora 12 Beta ate Ubuntu for breakfast :)
Fedora 12 performed on most test better than Ubuntu, nice work guys/ galls :)

If the email I saw on this list yesteday was correct we do in fact have an RC.

And a distro like arch eats both of them for breakfast, lunch and dinner. As great as Fedora is preformace has never been a strong point.

I presume you have relevant benchmarking data to back up this claim?

The same amount you have that disproves it. Better luck next time?

You made the claim, the onus is on you to back it up.

I didn't make any claims one way or the other. At least phoronix posts *something* in the way of benchmarks to back up their claims. Put up, or shut up.

Fedora 12 performed on most test better than Ubuntu, nice work guys/ galls :)
Phoronix's reputation for rigor in their benchmarks seems to only get worse over time. Still, as long as we're winning :)

They say they used http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/nightly-composes/desktop/ but they did not specify the date of the snapshot, only that it reported itself as version 11.92.

Are you referring to the 3D benchmarks using the proprietary nvidia driver?

There's no way to know what they tested. It was not an RC, we did not have an RC until about 10 minutes ago. Yesterday's full compose was a TC (test compose).
What they tested was one of the nightlies from http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/nightly-composes/ , but we can't tell which because they didn't give a date.
The NVIDIA driver benchmark is just weird, but not something we'd care much about anyway. All the others look within the range of meaning very little, to me.

Well, I just did a tally of the results on the link you posted and Ubuntu, believe it or not, bested Fedora by a score of 9 to 5.

Allow me to introduce you to my friend statistical significance.
Unfortunately the Phoronix results don't provide enough information to determine the confidence intervals, but I wouldn't bet on numbers like 18.32 vs 17.88... at least my own application timings are noisy enough that it wouldn't be.
Really the results show that both perform similarly, with a couple of exceptions. This is as expected.
