Here is a total score of Geekbench 6 benchmarks of Ubuntu x86-64-v3, OpenSUZE Tumbleweed and Linux Mint 21.1, all systems are installed on the same my fairly random hardware, AMD Ryzen 5 5600G 6 Cores, 12 Threads and X570 motherboard. Tests performed: File Compression, Navigation, HTML5 Browser, PDF Renderer, Photo Library, Clang, Text Processing, Asset Compression, Object Detection, Background Blur, Horizon Detection, Object Remover, HDR, Photo Filter, Ray Tracer, Structure from Motion.

I do not know with which flags current Tumbleweed packages are compiled but the results are consistently better than Ubuntu Server 23.04 v3. I don't think it is because of kernel 6.6 vs 6.2.
And Ubuntu Server 23.04 v3 results are consistently better than Linux Mint 21.1 -- though nothing drastic.
