CachyOS


Last Update: 2024-11-10 16:51 UTC


CachyOS is a Linux distribution based on Arch Linux. It focuses on speed and security optimisations - the default Linux kernel is heavily optimised using the BORE (Burst-Oriented Response Enhancer) scheduler, while the desktop packages are compiled with LTO, x86-64-v3 and x86-64-v4, Zen 4 optimization, security flags and performance improvements. The available desktop environments and window managers include KDE, GNOME, Xfce, i3wm, Wayfire, LXQt, OpenBox, Cinnamon, UKUI, LXDE, MATE, Budgie, Qtile, Hyprland and Sway. CachyOS also ships with both graphical and command-line installers and provides a Firefox-based browser (called Cachy-Browser) with some security enhancements and performance optimisations.

Popularity (hits per day): 12 months: 10 (791), 6 months: 8 (1,032), 3 months: 5 (1,220), 4 weeks: 4 (1,278), 1 week: 7 (1,176)

Average visitor rating: 8.69/10 from 70 review(s).

  • To compare the software in this project to the software available in other distributions, please see our Compare Packages page.
  • Notes: In case where multiple versions of a package are shipped with a distribution, only the default version appears in the table. For indication about the GNOME version, please check the "nautilus" and "gnome-shell" packages. The Apache web server is listed as "httpd" and the Linux kernel is listed as "linux". The KDE desktop is represented by the "plasma-desktop" package and the Xfce desktop by the "xfdesktop" package.
  • Colour scheme: green text = latest stable version, red text = development or beta version. The function determining beta versions is not 100% reliable due to a wide variety of versioning schemes.

This seems good but I wasn't able to install it on a test laptop, seems to have a lot of bugs in the installer and severe hardware compatibility limitations, including some very basic issues: it seems wasn't able to write any changes to the partition table, so the first installation said it was complete, but on reboot it couldn't find a boot device. Thereafter it couldn't delete any partitions on the HDD. This seems a very basic bug. Maybe with more development it will become a viable option for a desktop, but given the bugs encountered, I can't imagine it would be trustworthy enough for daily use.

Cachy has given me a barebones, but customizable experience of Arch Linux. Things like yay for AUR access are readily available on their repos so you can get going faster. CachyOS offers heavily optimized packages and settings by default, and it sits on the very edge of "bleeding edge". I recommend not using testing repositories on this distribution. I recommend this distribution for people looking to squeeze maximum performance from their hardware. One of my favorite features is being able to choose from various kinds of kernels from the repositories, and the ability to change CPU scheduler on the fly via scx-sched. Overall, this distro has done well as a daily driver.

Overrated imo. Its nothing different from endeavor OS. I haven't tried every game but these days all distros do good gaming. The installation process is so long compared to installing ubuntu or fedora. also there is a flaw in the installation workflow where you cannot choose multiple env and have to stick to default KDE. I don't see any value. This seems to be the new hype in the town so I don't want to berate the boy but to me its just another "also ran" candidate. I will update if my opnion changes in the future but it nothing great.
