Why is geekbench slower for me?

[hello-smile6]

I ran geekbench and got these results:
https://browser.geekbench.com/v3/cpu/9003804

However, #542 (comment) shows far better results. Did something change recently, or is my computer just slower?

Probably slower or throttling. You may also want to try a different browser.

Your CPU single core performance might just be lower. v86 is absolutely abysmal on my school laptop with a Pentium gold but great on my i7-8700 for example
