Ostensibly, the one with less overhead. Part of the dream of DirectX was a lite statement that could focus on gaming — that ultimately became Xbox. So look at an Xbox One (not Series!) and run Linux on similar hardware (no SSD!) and see if you can beat it. I think it can be done but I’m not sure.

You're right. Linux has always struggled to compete with hypothetical versions of Windows that aren't available. But you see, for testing purposes, we're forced to use the Windows version from this timeline.

Overhead isn’t everything. Windows just handles swapping better than Linux. More efficient swapping can mean better performance even with more ram usage.
