Poetic licence on my part. I think it may be a lot closer than you think. I have a Pi4 server and also one running under Linux on an old HP Microserver (AMD Duron with 8gb RAM). The HP is quicker but its a very close run thing. If said HP was running Windows it would not surprise me if the Pi was quicker. I have installed LMS on various Windows versions in the past as tests but it is a pain from lots of perspectives. Linux is just simpler and more stable. There may come a point when LMS wont run on Windows because of the Perl upgrade issue.
