from my experience with tuning on the low end for the sonaremin i would say linux can be setup to use its ressources most efficiently - i guess it will be a bit better than windows in a normal setup and i was even able to get a few percent more performance out of it by reducing things even further, i.e. very minimal window manager (even below xfce etc.) and number of running processes … i think windows is more like running linux with kde or gnome and you’ll get a significant boost in performance already by using xfce or a similar lightwight desktop and you have everything at your hands to go even further …
