WSL3 vs WSL2 Performance Benchmarks: 5-60% Speed Gains in Kernel and Compiler Workloads
WSL3 demonstrates 5-60% performance improvements over WSL2, with significant gains in memory bandwidth (61.35% increase) and reduced context-switching latency. Real-world Go compiler workloads saw a 3.91% reduction in wall-clock time, though user-space compute limits still constrain overall performance.
