Numerical computation benchmark comparison Win 7 vs Win 8
The title really says it. For the same machine, running say Octave or Matlab or R or Mathematica, or for Microsoft C++ or Intel Fortran is there any substantial difference in numerical performance when running under Win 7 or Win 8?
My prejudice is that Win 8 is more bloaty code than 7, but Microsoft does have some sharp people.
Thanks!
