A request that was asked since these games apparently run better on Windows. Vermintide 2 is about 20% faster on Linux and Doom Eternal about 20% faster on Windows.

Maybe I'm misinterpreting, but I don't think OP's claims are extraordinary. I think he's only saying "I've noticed Linux can outperform Windows on programs that are optimized for Windows. Kinda unexpected, but here are the benchmarks."

OP is not claiming that this is true in 100% of cases. For example, in this thread he points out that Windows outperformed Linux on Doom.
