Left 4 Dead 2 Runs Faster on Linux

Left 4 Dead 2 apparently runs faster on Linux than it does on Windows.

Both Left 4 Dead 2 and Portal 2 run about 20 percent faster on Linux and OpenGL than on Windows/Direct 3D. According to an official blog post from Valve, L4D2 ran at 315 frames per second on an Ubuntu Linux machine, and only 270 frames per second on a Windows PC with “comparable powers.”
