CachyOS Continues Delivering Leading Performance Over Ubuntu 25.10, Fedora Workstation 43 (www.phoronix.com)

With Intel having sunset Clear Linux, when it comes to aggressive out-of-the-box Linux performance there is the Arch Linux based CachyOS as the leading contender. Given the recent releases of Ubuntu 25.10 and Fedora Workstation 43, if you are curious about the out-of-the-box performance here are some fresh benchmarks of all three using the Framework Desktop.

well that and cachys opengl performance is like 1.5x the other distros in super tux kart, so if you had some legacy games, its run better in cachy probably but raw modern hardware would have likely made it trivial. the one exception i could imagine where opengl performance probably matters is heavily modded java minecraft

I’ve noticed really good improvements with modded Minecraft. I’m now getting over 100fps on a laptop with BSL shaders set to ultra. That’s pretty good to me, considering I wasn’t even getting 40fps before while on Bazzite.

Gotta link for that? Can't imagine what tuning would make that possible simply from library choices or kernel flags.

its in the review, in the super tux kart benchmark section. under vulkan, their FPS is functionally the same. Under OpenGL, Cachy is somehow significantly faster

I think this cant be some odd anomaly, because that gap is huge

  1. happy cake day! 2):

i could imagine where opengl performance matters is heavily modded java minecraft yup, that's enough for me forever (a very long time!) jk, it's not forever; but it's a long time.
