Based on this, I think you have WSL1: https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/5428 In any case: do people get "fair" performance under WSL or WSL2? Does > Cygwin give better performance?

It's been fine, but I didn't do anything like compile all of Sage; as you say, it's passively cooled. -------------- With WSL2, I think there are two different file systems "Linux side" and "Windows side" and access to the Windows side is super slow by comparison. But I may be misremembering. Best, Nathan > My impression (with both my laptop and the Surface Pro 7 having an intel > core i5) was that I should be getting similar performance.
