Phoronix ran benchmarks and current Talos II systems run hotter and slower than equivalent x86 systems but maybe they will improve over time.

- std_throwaway 7y agoAFAIK those benchmarks weren't specifically optimized for that processor architecture. Most programs are optimized with x86 systems in mind. The results for your specific application might come out differently.
- mshook 7y agoYeah but that's the thing in a way: people don't necessarily optimize. They just run the stuff right out of the box or after compiling it themselves... That's the hurdle which needs to be overcome and that's why x86 is years ahead because people have been taking care of the optimizations for you...
