Impossible to look at on mobile. The charts run off the right side of the screen. Viewing in desktop mode doesn’t seem to work. I’m guessing they’re trying to use a responsive layout, but they didn’t test articles like this on mobile. Come on Phoronix.

The Romans had a saying for this: "Quod licet Iovi, non licet bovi". While 20 centuries might have gone since it was coined it still holds true.
Going back to the original assumption that someone did not read the article it should be noted that socket performance in 18.10 is lower than that in 12.10 even when the spectre/meltdown mitigation is deactivated.
So because others sometimes violate the rules, it's okay for you to ignore the rules entirely? I'll leave it as an exercise to the readers to bring that principle to its absurd logical conclusions.
What is exactly is being measured in, for example, the R script? The same code running in the same modern version of R on Ubuntu 12 and 18? Or is the R version dating to Ubuntu 12? Or is it contemporaneous for both releases?
I really wish these websites would repeat these 100x or something so we could get an idea of the variability in the measurements.
