Oh I'm sure they're optimized for Intel, but that's easily explained by Intel's near-monopoly for the past 10 years. Now that AMD is gaining market share again

Oh I'm sure they're optimized for Intel, but that's easily explained by Intel's near-monopoly for the past 10 years. Now that AMD is gaining market share again we'll probably see this change. MS doesn't want to look bad in benchmarks.
- cptskippy 8y agoWe saw a similar situation when AMD released the Bulldozer line of CPUs and it took a minute for Microsoft to release a Hot Fix to address the issue. https://www.anandtech.com/show/5448/the-bulldozer-scheduling-patch-tested https://www.anandtech.com/show/5448/the-bulldozer-scheduling... The reality is that Windows doesn't recognize the new CPU and so it's not using a scheduler optimized for it. Where as AMD could have upstreamed any necessary changes for Linux to fully support it months ago.
