Back to @realcaseyrollins 's question, I get disabling things so that the test compares things with similar programs running, but wouldn't a better test be fresh installs with nothing disabled? Especially not disabling things that can't be permanently disasbled?

@jlcrawf @lcruggeri @realcaseyrollins @i maybe but the more stuff you have enabled the more hidden variables there are. For instance, what if defender happens to be installing something during a benchmark or running scans on one of them? It won't tell you that, but it will cause a huge performance hit

Defender is notorious for randomly nerfing your system at unpredictable times
@RustyCrab @lcruggeri @realcaseyrollins @jlcrawf either way, benchmarks are wankery, no marketer will provide you a number anyways, much less the store you end up buying it from
@i @lcruggeri @realcaseyrollins @jlcrawf I loathe that temperatures are no longer part of reviews because they're all so bad now. The most they'll do is tell you what the temperature of the keyboard is under full load.
@RustyCrab @lcruggeri @realcaseyrollins @jlcrawf no one wants to admit they're selling trash fires that recycle themselves by melting into nothing
