Really interesting benchmarks. Over 400 were performed with the Phoronix Test Suite. Kernel compilation was 58 seconds with my PC configuration. Ryzen 9 7950X was definitely the winner in the majority of benchmarks.
“Coming in first place most often was the Ryzen 9 7950X at 40.7% while the Ryzen 9 7950X3D 3D V-Cache processor led 12% of the time and then the Intel Core i9 14900K led 31% of the time.
When taking the geometric mean of all the performance benchmark results ran on all 18 processors, the Ryzen 9 7950X was the firm first place performer for this wide range of workloads tested. The Ryzen 9 7950X was 13.5% faster than the Core i9 14900K. The Ryzen 9 7950X3D scored a comfortable second place finish and it was around 8% faster than the i9-14900K.”

String processing is essential in many UNIX commands. C strings are terminated with nul characters.
Routines processing such strings, such as those provided by the C standard library libc are often reduced to walking through strings character by character in search for the nul terminator. This is why these operations have the reputation of poor performance.
The FreeBSD Team has been working in a reimplementation of libc string functions using SIMD techniques and getting advantage of instruction set extensions by new CPUs.

New AMD Ryzen 7040 series offer an AI engine that helps accelerate the system but it is currently only available for Windows and a Linux driver is not published yet.
A Github ticket was opened by an AMD staff member, thus allowing Linux users to voice their preference.
