While I get it, it does look pretty damning, skepticism when we haven’t been presented with rigorous documented testing is always good. I don’t think ex: gamersnexus is going to find different results, but I’m pretty damn sure they’ll at least be comparing chipsets to ensure the hardware actually is identical (and making sure that things like system settings are configured to be as fair as possible). Lets not be apple fans and leap to the top of the superiority heap just because a good looking infographic said we should.
Yes/no.
The linux scheduler is a work of art - heuristics to dynamically determine resource access priority, checks for resource locking that are some of the most elegant pieces of code written by humanity, incredibly adaptable and clever. It took me the better part of a year before I really understood the underlaying mechanics, and even now I could by no means reproduce it on my own. It’s truly an amazing bit of mathematics.

Windows solves the same problem by randomly elevating processes to maximum priority. That’s it, that’s the whole algorithm.
Depressingly, they’re equally effective.
