[8] In benchmarks, WSL 1's performance is often near native Linux Ubuntu, Debian, Intel Clear Linux or other Linux distributions. I/O is in some tests a bottleneck for WSL. [47] [48] [49] The redesigned WSL 2 backend is claimed by Microsoft to offer twenty-fold increases in speed on certain operations compared to that of WSL 1. [7]
The article details mostly about the WSL 1 --> WSL 2 switch. Instead, it should talk about WSL in general. Beside some advantages of WSL2, it has also huge disadvantages (like the decrease of the disk bandwidth below about 1/20, or setting up hard limits to RAM usage). The article does not even want to mention them.
Azure Linux, previously known as CBL-Mariner (in which CBL stands for Common Base Linux), [3] is a free and open-source Linux distribution that Microsoft has developed. It is the base container OS for Microsoft Azure services [ 4 ] [ 5 ] and the graphical component of WSL 2 .
systemd is a software suite that provides an array of system components for Linux [7] operating systems. The main aim is to unify service configuration and behavior across Linux distributions. [8]

A light-weight Linux distribution is a Linux distribution that uses lower memory and processor-speed requirements than a more "feature-rich" Linux distribution. The lower demands on hardware ideally result in a more responsive machine , and allow devices with fewer system resources (e.g. older or embedded hardware ) to be used productively.
The table below shows general information about the distributions: founder or producer, maintainer, release date, the latest version, etc. Linux distributions endorsed by the Free Software Foundation [1] are marked 100% Free under the System distribution commitment column.
Snap is a software packaging and deployment system developed by Canonical for operating systems that use the Linux kernel and the systemd init system. The packages, called snaps, and the tool for using them, snapd, work across a range of Linux distributions [3] and allow upstream software developers to distribute their applications directly to users.
