This initial benchmarking was done on the Dell PowerEdge R7425 server,
which features two EPYC 7601 processors for a combined 64 cores / 128 threads
while the server was equipped with 512GB DDR4-2666 memory
and each OS was installed to the SSDSCKJB120G7R Intel M.2 SSD
(the twenty Samsung 860 EVO SSDs weren't part of this round of OS benchmarking).
