Curious to know the coolest things you achieved by configuring your kernel. I know kernel config can be boring, but I’m hoping someone will have an impressive answer.

For me I have a very lightweight kernel that runs wayland on nvidia without any issues to date.

    How did you conduct this speed test? Where are the results? 😂

    Sorry, I think this any time someone says their computer is faster or mod X on Android is “snappier”

      I used geekbench 5. My CPU is AMD Ryzen 5 5500U. I tested a few prebuild kernels and custom compiled the fastest one.

      prebuild linux kernel:

      • singlethread: 1170
      • multithread score: 4604

      prebuild linux-zen kernel:

      • singlethread: 1156
      • multithread score: 4593

      prebuild linux-xanmod kernel:

      • singlethread: 1164
      • multithread score: 4594

      prebuild linux-hardened kernel:

      • singlethread: 1156
      • multithread score: 4841

      custom linux-hardened kernel:

      • singlethread: 1160
      • multithread score: 4977
