![]() ![]() But, after using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS for the past 4 days I must say that I’m really impressed with the performance (which I’ll explain with numbers - boot times, memory usage etc) and especially the stability of this LTS release. It’s nothing major and these crashes have never affected the OS or the applications that I use on most cases. ![]() ![]() Here and there it throws a ‘crash report’ saying something crashed etc. Ubuntu in general runs quite well on my Dell V131 laptop. And for creating the graphs for the performance comparisons, I used the LibreOffice Calc. Most of my work is associated with the web browser, but I also use VLC (installed manually) and the file manager (of course) quite extensively. I usually use my laptop computer for about 10-12 hours (pretty much continuously) daily. I’ve used it for the past 4 days now, as my main operating system. When Ubuntu 16.04 LTS was first released, I immediately downloaded it and installed it on the partition that I’ve preserved on my laptop computer which I have used to install the operating systems that I’ve reviewed so far on this website. In a certain sense, the LTS release is the flagship version of Ubuntu that sees a new release in every 2 years, and each release is backed by 5 years of support, opposed to the 9 month support of the normal Ubuntu release that sees a new face in every 6 months. In simple terms, the LTS pledges more stability at the cost of not having the most up-to-date versions of the software packages it comes with. Ubuntu 16.04 is the 6th Long Term Support (LTS) release of Ubuntu. ![]()
