I’ve noticed that I get significantly better CPU performance when running Garuda versus other distros with my Ryzen 5600X. I’ve been experimenting with some other distros and was wondering if there is a way to easily apply all the performance tweaks that Garuda has?
The other distro is still arch-based and I’m already using the zen kernel.
I’ve found the gitlab page for the performance tweaks, but I’m no expert in compiling from source. I’ve done it, but only when projects had instructions on how to do so. Would building that package manually be the easiest way? What would be the process for doing so?
(I’d post my garuda-inxi, but I don’t have a way to install that package either )
I am not exactly an expert, but won’t adding the chaotic aur repo to pacman and installing the perfomance tweaks just work like plug and play since, like you said, they are both arch and it looks udev rules are all that is being updated?
Unfortunately, the performance-tweaks package is in the regular Garuda repos, but not the chaotic-aur. AFAIK you can only access the Garuda specific repos on Garuda.
Actually, I ran into some strange graphics issues, even though I have an AMD GPU. So, I’ll be coming back to the promised land of Garuda. My ISO just finished moving to the flash drive. All hail the homelab for having a backup of everything already.
That Ferrari swapped WRX rally car was pretty cool though…
(Also Ferrari hasn’t been owned by FIAT since 2016.)
