The claim has a non linked URL where they compare the performance of a core i3 6th gen from a decade ago (presumably with 4gb ram) with a core ultra 5 just out (presumably with quadruple the RAM)

3 times faster on 4 times faster hardware
Same hardware.
It seems to be principally due to lower latency (less time looking for stuff in RAM or HD) and improved power management.
Loul it is say one the article that not the same hardware at all.
I actually had to test this with my hardware, Win11 is atrocious. I don’t have exact numbers, but Win11 uses so much more RAM for itself that it’s really noticeable how it just gets slower so much faster when I open stuff.
