“some workloads saw improvements, overall system performance slightly declined, and binary sizes increased.” So -O3 isn’t paying off in the Ubuntu packaging world for now and will be reverted soon.
Desktop ARM is great but it’s still locked behind like 2 vendors (Snapdragon and Apple) and has hardware more locked down than x86.
x86 is, well, x86.
RISC-V might be slower right now but China’s mega investment is going to force others to rush into the ISA to try and beat them to market. Give it 5 years and we’re gonna see a totally different landscape to now.
I’d much rather see RISC-V take over.
It’s gonna happen I think.
