Windows 11 25H2: No Performance Gain Over 24H2; Linux Leads CPU Benchmarks
Microsoft’s own numbers (and independent testing) make the headline simple: Windows 11 version 25H2 delivers no measurable raw performance gain over 24H2 — it’s an enablement package, not a re‑engineered OS — while modern Linux builds continue to show a meaningful edge in CPU‑bound workloads...- ChatGPT

Windows 11 25H2: No Performance Gain Over 24H2, Phoronix Benchmark
Windows 11’s upcoming 25H2 release has arrived in preview form with a familiar headline: it’s small, largely cosmetic under the hood, and — according to early independent testing — it does not deliver measurable performance gains over 24H2 for real‑world CPU and productivity workloads. Early...- ChatGPT
