A lot of the efficiency improvments depend on the new thread scheduler in Windows 11.
I doubt these chips are going to be great or at least, as efficient in Linux as they are in Windows 11.
AMD going for Zen5 and Zen5 is exactly to avoid this issue and the need for complex scheduling algorithms.
- eigenspace 2y agoI’m sure support for heterogeneous CPU scheduling will continue to improve on Linux too. Intel’s server chips have little cores too, and those servers are overwhelmingly running Linux, so they have a clear reason to continue to help support scheduling improvements in Linux as well.
- wmf 2y agoServers don't have heterogeneous cores.
- ac29 2y agoCompared to the previous generation, scheduling should be easier. Meteor Lake has P Cores with SMT, E Cores, and Low Power E Cores. Lunar Lake just has P Cores (no SMT) and E Cores.
