Windows causes poor software performance. In other news, water is wet.
Native is faster than virtualized, who could have ever imagined.
Actually, what is weird is WSL apparently ran faster for some things like SSL and some Python Scripting.
But yeah, overhead costs will make WSL slower in almost all cases.
I'd be curious about native Hyper-V
That's why I Ubuntu without WSL, if at all
Mandatory Ubuntu sucks
Shame there’s no comparisons with 24H2
