Aren't we looking at them?  :)


I am expecting the words are:
I would like to see benchmarks we can agree are useful being done by a 'trusted' third party versus a site (or at least does Apples to Apples comparisons of Alma 9 vs CS9 vs Fedora 34 and Alma8 vs CS8 vs Fedora 29 etc ). 

Clear Linux also seems to carry various out of band patches to the kernel, systemd and other places to speed things up so I expect it is more than just throwing the CPU into performance mode.
