Been waiting for a WSL thread. Does WSL have a performance hit on Windows 10?
I sometimes can't decide if I want to use a familiar linux version of a program or a Windows version, but I like how WSL lets you access the windows file system

Still, its more than offset by the convenience of performing bash operations on Windows; remembering `du -csh ./* | sort -h` (sort directories by size) is easier than whatever Powershell would have me type.
Try a 'git clone' of a reasonably large remote repo to see what it's like. Into both the windows fs and the Linux one.
Should I submit hashes with geth linux on wsl2 or geth windows native
I guess I could just benchmark it, havent gotten around to it.
Getting X11 up and running is a little tricky also, because localhost is not the same as localhost on the Windows box. You have to set DISPLAY to the external IP on the Windows box.
Sorry to intrude on this unrelated thread but it's the only way to get in touch with you.
