[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]
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]
Clear Linux OS is a Linux distribution, developed and maintained on Intel's 01.org open-source platform, and optimized for Intel's microprocessors with an emphasis on performance and security. [13] [14] Its optimizations are also effective on AMD systems. [15] Clear Linux OS follows a rolling release model.
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.
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.
Mandriva Linux Free was a 'traditional' distribution (i.e. one that comes with a dedicated installer, [47] to install the distribution to the computer before it is run). It was 'free' in both senses : it consists entirely of free and open-source software , and it was made available for public download at no charge.
