There has been a lot of speculation regarding Spectre and Meltdown, specifically how it will affect overall system, performance. Most sources seem to indicate Intel CPUs are taking more of a performance hit than AMD. This raises a question. Linus, when you do your performance testing, are you doing your testing with systems that have the Spectre Meltdown fixes in place or not? I ask because it seems like the test results WITHOUT those fixes in place would not be a good representation of what most people are dealing with... 

 

So do your test systems have Spectre and Meltdown patches in place?
