• It’s not “because we’re not fiddling” with anything.

    It’s because Windows’ scheduler is objectively broken and not scheduling workloads correctly.

      • It assigns workloads to the virtual core (from SMT) before properly distributing them to other cores. Source

        This is not an issue on Linux because they schedule threads correctly.

        But I guess this post is about windows only doing some other branch prediction correctly on some admin mode, so I guess that way too.

          Thanks for the explaination! I would have searched in but I’m on a phone and my kids are jumping on the couch/me. Have an upvote, on me.
