Maybe you’re right, but to clarify bit what I heard is that musl is slower in heavy tasks, but still, maybe you’re right.
2 things I’m almost sure about are you that musl is lighter than glibc and that the allocator chimera Linux uses have better performance than the standard musl allocator.
I didn’t really understand, but I did heard that standard musl is lightweight but the performance is much worse than glibc. But chimera Linux changed the allocator to mimalloc that is bit less light then the standard allocator for musl but still much lighter than glibc. Also it’s performance is very close to glibc and can even beat it sometimes
Try chimera Linux, it is very efficient, it doesn’t have any bloat, it is a musl libc distro ( like alpine but they modified the musl to have better performance (they’re saying it can complete or surpass glibc), it isn’t gnu/Linux, they changed the gnu userland to freeBSD userland with the Linux kernel and it is much lighter, they also use dinit instead of systemd and the boot times are very fast. Also the package manager is apk and it is very lightweight and efficient (and very fast)
I recommend you to try a window manager, maybe niri, but with something like dank material shell or noctalia, it is very light and can look very fancy
Thank you 🙏
How does this compare to now?
Probably there is something you loose if you’ll change to the allocator chimera Linux uses (btw microsoft developed it, I don’t know if it is good that they’re the once that made it but it works, I use chimera Linux with the microsoft) but I don’t now what. All I know that for general purpose pc it works great, the only troubles I got were with software made just for glibc. I’ll be happy to know what I loose when not using the standard allocator for musl, but I don’t know, is there a chance you can check it? thank you giving you point of view, I appreciate it.
