Hey all! I recently installed CachyOS which comes with linux-cachyos-bore as the default kernel, and I have to say that it does feel a lot snappier to just use and click around, even though I have almost the exact same Plasma setup as my previous Arch install. So now I’m wondering how many great patches and forks I’m missing out on :D
What’s your experience with using kernels other than linux, linux-lts, and linux-zen? Now that I’m free of Nvidia bullshit I’m more inclined to test out different things, does anyone have some resources like comparisons of the various alternatives out there?
I use linux-tkg with the PDS scheduler. It all depends on the task whether you will see improvements. In my game of choice I saw a much smoother experience going in and out of load screens and generally experienced less stuttering in more crowded areas when players were being loaded in. I noticed no other improvements.
