Hi! From the old messages in this channel I concluded that Libbitcoin node runs considerably slower on Linux than on Windows. Is this conclusion/assumption valid, or has anything changed in this regard?

I did a couple of tests during the last few weeks and it is as you say. Stock Windows is faster than stock Ubuntu on the same machine. Tests lead to different assumptions but we are focusing on 2 areas, memory management and disk access (my fav).
