Small sample set aside, the performance differences here are much bigger than I've seen in previous linux comparisons. Something has to be off right? Curious if anyone is able to reproduce these results.

Typing terminal commands is actually the easiest and the fastest way to install a Linux system. It’s just not a normie way, obviously. For the folks that know what they’re doing and why they’re doing it, it’s just really simpler than walking through a GUI.

    Right you are! I needed to install Linux like five times recently, this month alone, and the best I invented is to just clone my laptop’s system (Arch, by the way) and then tweak a few things here and there. In the future, I guess I won’t even bother installing when I can clone my system within minutes (and half an hour on waiting for rsync to finish).
