When recently carrying out the Windows 11 25H2 vs. Ubuntu Linux benchmarks I also ended up carrying out some Llama.cpp AI benchmarks as the first time exploring the AI inferencing performance between Windows and Linux for both CPU and GPU-accelerated deployments. This testing is looking at the performance of the native Llama.cpp Windows and Linux builds both for CPU execution and then GPU acceleration too using Vulkan. Microsoft Windows 11 25H2 via the preview channel was in use with all available updates as of 6 September plus using the latest Radeon Software 25.8.1 driver release for the RDNA4 GPU support.
