  IIRC that benchmark is garbage, because the compiler they use was so old that Debian Stale had a newer version in their repos, when that article was first published. Ah, here it is. From https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/3snvpc/steamos_gaming_comes_with_significant_performance/cwz4k5x/ https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/3snvpc/steamo... "took a quick peek at the latest Geekbench executable for Linux(3.3.2,) it was compiled with GCC 4.4.3 on Ubuntu 10.04 - a 5 and a half year old compiler. Windows version was compiled with MSVC 2012 update 4 released 2 years ago." Take note: That ars article was done ~15 months ago (november 2015). In it, they used Ubuntu 10.04, which was released in April of 2010 (thus '10.04')! Steam wasn't even released on Linux, until nearly 3 years later, in 2013! That article is so BS that you should ignore it outright. It's not even fit to be toilet paper.

    You mean Debian Stable, though perhaps that was intentional? If so, well done.
