Foreign technology media Phoronix recently used AMD’s Ryzen 7 7800X3D processor platform to conduct performance comparison tests on WSL2 and Ubuntu 23.04 on Win11.
The test results show that the native Ubuntu runs more powerfully, but the performance score of Microsoft Windows Subsystem for Linux 2 (WSL2) is not far behind.
The test results are as follows:
For users who need to use different working environments, the performance of WSL2 on the Win11 system is already quite good.
Overall, the experience of running the Ubuntu 22.04 LTS release via WSL2 has been quite pleasant.
Microsoft will expand WSL2 functionality in the future, adding graphics / 3D applications, video acceleration and other functions.
For multi-workload users who don't care much about performance, WSL2 is a good choice.
