Re: i5 and ARM are similar in performance?

But how much is due to different macOS and iOS performance? macOS is heavier than iOS and has to cope with much more complex features, i.e just the need of handling overlapping windows makes the GUI code more complex than one that doesn't need to deal with it. Same for handling background tasks. Would people accept iOS limitations on a laptop?
