Ubuntu 25.10 Delivering Some Nice Performance Gains For Intel Core Ultra "Lunar Lake"

([Operating Systems] 61 Minutes Ago Add A Comment)

[2]Ubuntu 25.10 is looking quite nice in the performance department ahead of its official release later this week. On various systems tested thus far, Ubuntu 25.10 is delivering nice gains over Ubuntu 25.04 and compared to the current Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. The latest Ubuntu 25.10 benchmarking at Phoronix is looking at the Intel Core Ultra Lunar Lake performance using the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 13 Aura Edition laptop.

For those curious how Ubuntu 25.10 is looking for Intel Lunar Lake laptops, I recently wrapped up some fresh benchmarks comparing the out-of-the-box performance on Ubuntu 25.04 to the near-final Ubuntu 25.10 state.

The six-month update to Ubuntu Linux means moving from Linux 6.14 to Linux 6.17, GNOME 48 to 49, Mesa 25.0 to Mesa 25.2, GCC 14.2 to GCC 15.2, and a variety of other package updates. Even with Intel Lunar Lake being about one year old, the updated open-source software stack of Ubuntu 25.10 is still helping to tap additional performance on current-generation Lunar Lake laptops.

Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear--not absence of fear. Except a
creature be part coward it is not a compliment to say it is brave; it is merely
a loose misapplication of the word. Consider the flea!--incomparably the
bravest of all the creatures of God, if ignorance of fear were courage.
Whether you are asleep or awake he will attack you, caring nothing for the fact
that in bulk and strength you are to him as are the massed armies of the earth
to a sucking child; he lives both day and night and all days and nights in the
very lap of peril and the immediate presence of death, and yet is no more
afraid than is the man who walks the streets of a city that was threatened by
an earthquake ten centuries before. When we speak of Clive, Nelson, and Putnam
as men who "didn't know what fear was," we ought always to add the flea--and
put him at the head of the procession.
-- Mark Twain, "Pudd'nhead Wilson's Calendar"
