Mac OS X speed tests and Linux
Posted: Tue Jul 14, 2009 7:24 am
Hello everyone,
I have a Mac Pro (2007) 8-core 3Ghz Mac and run some speed tests using the benchwell scene. I took the liberty to compare this to Linux and Windows (running each OS natively on the same mac!) and found that Linux was the fastest. However, the 64-bit Tech preview was the second fastest. Thought I would share in this forum.
If you want to find out more, please read my post on the Linux forum:
