I was reading on WCG forum that certain sub-projects do better. Something VINA based tasks do better on Linux. I don't really understand.. but has anyone run Windows vs Linux vs macOS to see if they get better results with a specific OS using the same hardware?

As closely as I can tell, Win7 64-bit does about as well as Ubuntu 16.04 on my Haswell machines. Any differences appear to be more from the work units themselves, and the erratic way they are scored.
