MBP i7-3615QM, MacOS Catalina (2.3 quad mid 2012)Īn ancient 2012 MacBook Pro with WSL2 boots Discourse almost as fast as the state of the art MacBook Pro!ĩ880HK CPU boots about 80% faster on Linux than it does in macOS Lenovo P1 - Gen 2 - 9850H - WSL1 - Ubuntu Lenovo P1 - Gen 2 - 9850H - WSL2 - Ubuntuĭesktop: AMD Ryzen 3950X, Arch, NVMe, ruby 2.6.5 (rvm)

We have run the benchmark on many of our development machines and noticed a trend. The benchmark lives here, anyone can run it. It also contains some micro benches to help isolate culprits including:

It is a simple benchmark that measures performance of various tasks you are likely to run into in development: Since then I crafted a version of Discourse Bench (used at: ) that is there to profile “performance” of local development machines.

Noah Gibbs started some basic investigation but did not come up with anything definitive.

About a year ago I noticed various benchmarks such as running specs were running abnormally slow on macOS.
