While Linux 7.1 was racking up many wins over Linux 7.0, with the OpenVINO AI toolkit and using Intel's GPU back-end thre was minimal benefit from the new kernel version. Very slight gains if anything out of using Linux 7.1 for the Arc Pro B70 with OpenVINO 2026.

👁 OpenVINO GenAI benchmark with settings of Model: TinyLlama-1.1B-Chat-v1.0, Device: GPU. v7.0 was the fastest.

👁 OpenVINO GenAI benchmark with settings of Model: granite-3.0-8b-instruct, Device: GPU. v7.0 was the fastest.

👁 OpenVINO GenAI benchmark with settings of Model: Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct, Device: GPU. v7.1-rc6 was the fastest.

👁 OpenVINO GenAI benchmark with settings of Model: Qwen2.5-VL-3B-Instruct, Device: GPU. v7.0 was the fastest.

👁 OpenVINO GenAI benchmark with settings of Model: Qwen3-8B, Device: GPU. v7.0 was the fastest.

In the case of OpenVINO GenAI was one of the only workloads where the performance consistently regressed on Linux 7.1.
