AMD Strix Point Linux Performance Comparison One Year After Launch
For those having or looking at Strix Point mini PCs for SOHO web servers or other server-type low-power deployments, there were some nice performance gains seen in some of those common Linux workloads.
👁 Cryptsetup benchmark with settings of Twofish-XTS 512b Encryption. One Year Later was the fastest.
👁 Cryptsetup benchmark with settings of Twofish-XTS 512b Decryption. One Year Later was the fastest.
There were also crypto performance benefits from the updated Linux kernel thanks to AVX-512 crypto optimizations merged to the upstream kernel over the past year.
Overall the AMD Strix Point performance was moving in the right direction with better performance and power efficiency compared to the Ubuntu Linux software stack at launch for most workloads.
