Inexplicable lag when opening media folders, Windows reloads every file individually
Trying to research this a little more, I came across a post that certainly seems to mimic the issue.

Control Center on macOS is always re-rendering its SwiftUI causing 1% CPU load
> compressed memory
doesn't solve much and it's been available in all other OS for a long time.
many reported that compressed memory can negatively impact performances in certain scenarios
For example

I condensed down 30 million JPGs to 2.6TB and it takes me 6 days to move them
You can see pretty easily if you ever try to delete a node_modules folder on Windows: https://github.com/microsoft/Windows-Dev-Performance/issues/17 There's some anectdotal evidence in there that FS performance is better in Linux even when Linux is emulated in WSL2 instead of native Windows.

This delay happens when I open any folder with videos in it. Is it normal behavior or should I change any settings? (Using Windows 11 22h2 latest official build).

- Switching back to Windows showed me why Linux is more viable than ever
- Alternatives to CCleaner?

“The entire 11 MB ZIP file was being read from disk a single byte at a time”
A bug has been filed about this on the WinDev repo, might help resolve it faster if it gets some upvotes: https://github.com/microsoft/Windows-Dev-Performance/issues/...

Notepad running next to gedit using the initial WSL GUI app support
There are performance issues with POSIX-first software on Windows. There is an open issue for the Windows team about it on Github. You can read more about it here. That's why WSL is needed.

It absolutely 100% can be true.
As an example: Windows Services for Linux 2 used a special init daemon to interact with the host OS.
That meant no systemd. That meant that the `systemctl` program wasn't there.
This baffled legions, armies, of wannabe sysadmins.

People on the whole have no idea how this stuff works, and they just copy magic incantations from StackOverflow to get stuff to happen. If that doesn't work, then this OS is broken. The end.
For these guys, WSL was broken.

MS hired Lennart Poettering.

He "fixed" it. Systemd now works in WSL2. All those guides for noobs now work. Everyone is happy.
In a world where tools like Flatpak and Snap are proliferating and it's driving deep divisions between Linux distros, if you think the average person struggling with Linux is going to use `ldd` to work out where the dependencies for something live, I'm afraid you are a deep guru who lives on a different plane of existence.
We now have widely-used packaging systems which simply embed an apps entire dependency tree into a package to avoid people having to work out the difference between `apt` and `rpm`. Thousands of terabytes of disk are being burned to make this stuff go away.
Yes, this is too hard. Way too hard.

Broadcom to Cut Almost 1,300 VMware Jobs in California After Takeover
Seems to more of a Defender issue than a WSL one, see https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/8995
After adding exclusions for the fsnotifier-wsl process and and both variants of the WSL distro path my disk performance was improved.
Adding the idea64.exe process also helped since I was trying to run IntelliJ against projects inside WSL.
