Friendly reminder inference is WAY faster on Linux vs windows

I have a simple home lab pc: 64gb ddr4, RTX 8000 48gb (Turing architecture) and core i9 9900k cpu. I use Linux Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. Before using this pc as a home lab it ran Windows 10. Over this weekend I reinstalled my Windows 10 ssd to check out my old projects. I updated Ollama to the latest version and tokens per second was way slower than when I was running Linux. I know Linux performs better but I didn’t think it would be twice as fast.
