Which flavour of Linux do you prefer?
Phoronix has grabbed five of the latest and greatest versions of Linux to see how they compare and which is best at various tasks. Most of their testing compares the performance of common tasks in Linux, such as compressing and uncompressing as well as taking a look at multimedia performance.
