 Well, it looks like I might be switching my containers to Arch. I finished running the Phoronix-Test-Suite benchmarks and unfortunately they were not very conclusive. Many of the tests failed on most of the systems, so there were only a few tests that worked on multiple systems. However, the tests that did work on more than one system had Arch performing better.
 Also I am very familiar with Arch, so I don't have to learn new ways of doing things. Also am an interested in using cockpit for remote administration which they the Cockpit crew test on Arch. The only concern I have is if you do not update regularly, you need to go through the process of getting the new keys for the repository.

 For those of you interested in seeing the results.
