Linux Lite 1.8 vs 2.0 Performance

[Wirezfree]

Hi All,

Having now set-up LL2 to my liking I have completed a
"relative" performance test/difference using GtkPerf, available in synaptic package manager.

GtkPerf LinuxLite 1.8 LinuxLite 2.0
i5-3450s i5-3450s
Test Run 100 1000 100 1000
1 2.45 48.89 1.78 27.49
2 2.43 48.55 1.80 27.58
3 2.41 48.43 1.79 27.60
4 2.42 48.81 1.77 27.37
5 2.42 48.66 1.76 27.21
6 2.42 48.64 1.78 27.36
7 2.41 49.34 1.78 27.06
8 2.44 48.56 1.80 27.17
9 2.37 48.47 1.73 27.28
10    2.40   48.51   1.82   27.41

Total 24.17 486.86 17.81      273.53
Avg Secs 2.42   48.69 1.78   27.35

I''m seeing @ 30%+ improvement between 1.8 & 2.0
all this is relative, and my hardware.
But I'm impressed.

Interesting, however most of the credit should go to the developers of the software we ship with LL. We just tie it all up into a distribution and make sure everything plays nice together, as well as some secret sauce tweaks

Hi Valtam,

Very Nice sauce keep it coming.

I did forgot to add...
I have updated the Intel Microcode:
Available in Synaptic Package Manager.

Installed latest Intel "Linux" Graphics drivers 1.5

Cool

Hi Valtam,

I would give LL2 10 out 10.

I do have a couple of things to address, I use Virtualbox/Windows for that.
> Finding a replacement for MS Visio for diagrams & flow charts
> An email client that works with my Hosted MS Exchange provider,
  not even Evolution, it's to do with http/rpc connect method.

Hello!

Have you tried Dia as a replacement for Visio?

Hi,

Thanks...
I have seen reference to it, but not tried it yet.

I have spent the past 3+ hours researching Evolution email and how
to connect that to Hosted Exchange with EWS(Exchange Web Services).
Looks quite promising, it's almost a clone of MS Outlook.
But Evolution could bloat LL2
