Earlier this week Phoronix published a set of comparative benchmarks regarding Ubuntu, testing various recent releases to compare their performance figures on all sorts of different tasks. They've now done the same thing for Fedora, so we can compare Fedora and Ubuntu in terms of performance.

It appears that it's not that newer Ubuntus are slow but that 7.04 was for some reason, crazy fast. Fedora and the newer Ubuntus performed about the same except in compiling, where Fedora (and ubuntu 7.04) killed the newer ubuntus totally. So essentially, everyone should stop bitching about ubuntu being slow (because it's no worse than the competition) and instead try to figure out why 7.04 was so fast.
