Further Exploring The Intel Tiger Lake Core i7-1165G7 Performance On Ubuntu Linux  Phoronix

Last week I published initial benchmarks of the Intel Core i7 1165G7 "Tiger Lake" performance on Linux with the Dell XPS 13 9310 Developer Edition laptop. Of most surprise from those preliminary Linux figures were finding that for some single-threaded workloads the performance was actually worse than the previous generation Ice Lake. Since then I've been running more tests around the clock with some interesting discoveries to note today. It is possible to enhance the single-threaded performance so it's performing better than Ice Lake as would be expected, but comes with lowering the multi-threaded performance compared to the results shared last week.

I've written a few articles about Rust now, including (most recently) My top 7 keywords in Rust, in which I promised a follow-up article. The keywords article talked about keywords from the std library, and in this article, I'm going to look at some functions from the Rust prelude.
