CentOS and Clear Linux tended to deliver the fastest code compilation.
Mozilla's DeepSpeech speech-to-text engine is one of the newest test profiles introduced and here Clear Linux along with CentOS 8/Stream were the front-runners.
Clear Linux also had a slight lead with GROMACS.
CentOS 8/Stream meanwhile were running the fastest for PostgreSQL.
Clear Linux came back out in front when it came to Redis.
Due to various kernel versions at play and CPU microcode revisions, the context switching performance can be quite different depending upon Linux distribution.
