looking at the results make me wonder if MS is keeping separate branches of win 10 internally or some CPU hogging services are disabled on Win 10 enterprise version.

Windows 10 Pro crippled the scheduler. Windows 10 Enterprise uses the same uncrippled scheduler as Windows Server. "CPU-hogging services" don't consume 32 full cores.

but this proofs my theory that MS is keeping internally different repositories for win 10 also we know that some tracking services are disabled for Win 10 enterprise which leads to logical conclusion that tracking services could potentially limit OS I/O ops.

Lol no, it's just licensing policies and nothing more.

By the way, going Enterprise -> Pro or Pro -> Enterprise doesn't need a reboot.

Any insight into whether Pro for Workstations is better here?
