New benchmarks indicate WSL3, Microsoft's next-generation Windows Subsystem for Linux, runs roughly 5-60% faster than WSL2 depending on the workload. The results, published by developer Tony Metlayidis, are drawing attention among developers who rely on Linux tooling inside Windows, with file I/O and build-heavy tasks reportedly seeing the largest improvements.
Why now: Developers are weighing whether the performance jump justifies upgrading to the new Windows Subsystem for Linux version.
