I have tried to find something with google, but no luck.
My cachyos experience is that it just feels snappier than other distros out of the box on multiple machines. The benchmarks confirm this too.
Stability is sometimes an issue on arch/cachyos, I think a cachyos like system based on debian, could offer the performance benefits while being more stable.
I have been running cachyos for like 2 years on one machine and the issues I had, were issues on arch too, so I can’t say cachyos optimizations made the system less stable.
If you’re looking for a Debian-based distribution that provides CPU-optimized packages similar to CachyOS, the short answer is: there isn’t one that does this out of the box.
The main reason is philosophical. Debian (and its derivatives like Ubuntu) prioritize stability, reproducibility, and broad hardware compatibility. As a result, packages are typically compiled with conservative, generic CPU targets rather than aggressive optimizations like -march-native or x86-64-v3/v4.
In contrast, CachyOS is built around performance tuning, including CPU-specific optimizations, LTO, and a custom kernel, which explains the “snappier” experience you’re noticing.
If you want a similar effect on a Debian-based system, your options are more manual:
Rebuild packages locally using optimized compiler flags (-march-native, LTO, etc.)
Use a performance-tuned kernel such as XanMod or Liquorix
Selectively optimize critical components rather than the entire system
However, a fully optimized Debian-based ecosystem like CachyOS would require maintaining a separate repository and build infrastructure, which is likely why such a project doesn’t really exist in practice, so, what you’re looking for is technically possible, but not available as a ready-made Debian-based distribution.
