You are right, it seems much faster than freeBSD in a lot of areas and relevant benchmarks (real world programs and scenarios).
They got similar overall results, but as far as I see, freeBSD is mainly faster in irrelevant benchmarks. (This is an opinion based on a glance of the phoronix article. I haven't spent much time looking at the results, also I am not an expert at benchmarking.)
I mean it's just impressive for such a small project, and benchmark's...well they just count for your very own workload..it's good to find regressions but not much else.
