Windows causes poor software performance. In other news, water is wet.

Native is faster than virtualized, who could have ever imagined.

Actually, what is weird is WSL apparently ran faster for some things like SSL and some Python Scripting.

But yeah, overhead costs will make WSL slower in almost all cases.
