It really depends on what is being compared: CPU, memory, disk, etc. It
is best to isolate each performance test by running very specific
synthetic benchmarks.

Benchmarking with real workloads like source code compiling is OK, but
is not "apples to apples", as the disk and memory latency significantly
affect CPU performance metrics for example.
