Also, every single reference to Windows is in the context of testing whether the performance issues they're seeing are OS or hardware related, which is exactly the sort of analysis work I'd like to see more of.
At any rate, this article isn't about the Steam Deck's performance, it's about Van Gogh specifically, and how it relates to other pieces of Zen 2 hardware. Testing with both Linux and Windows is useful. There's a comment elsewhere in this discussion by a Valve engineer saying that one of the issues the author saw is due to an ACPI handling issue in Linux. That's the sort of thing you catch by testing with multiple OSes.
But using Windows, as another commentator pointed out, was done because my latency test gave very weird results from SteamOS and needed more investigation. I also used Windows to test the iGPU because Nemes's Vulkan test ran into problems under SteamOS.
It's like Linux on the Switch - you don't see the gaming press benchmarking the Switch using Linux. But then again the Linux Foundation doesn't pay thousands of "people" in the gaming press to astroturf its product. Microsoft does.
It's not like the Linux review part was completely skipped, which would make the review a bit silly.
