Performance comparison between Linux and Windows

user4395129Feb 20 2015 — edited Mar 13 2015

Hi.

My client is running a single-instance 10g DB, with a standby database on another server. both running on Linux.

Due to lack of system knowledge on Linux among the company's IT staff, they wish to migrate their system to a windows server.

Their question is - whether performance is known to be better or worse on windows?

I have found some papers on the internet claiming for an almost 30% performance-gap in favor of linux, but most of them were pretty outdates, so I am hoping someone here could give me some more updated information.

Thank you,

Yaron.
