Yep; I know. But for most people interested in this comparison that's nevertheless likely to make the comparison less representative of their workloads.

Hats off to phoronix; it's not meant as a criticism - just an expectation that the benchmark results may not satisfy everyone.

Feels like it makes perfect sense to compare performance on the same system. Is someone going to switch systems for some minor performance gains? I really doubt that. Usually it's something else that motivates people to switch.

That said people pick different manufactures for their next device all the time (at least in the Linux/Windows world) and having performance comparison for these devices on your favorite system helps you choose.
