MP 6,1 Catalina Speed Bump for MacPro 6,1

[lostraxx]

2013 MacPro kept a 10.14.6 partition/whatever it is called in APFS SSD parlance and installed 10.15. Geekbench 5 says I got a 6.8% single core speed increase and a 1.4% multicore increase on the CPU test. Compute OpenCL test showed +1%.

Sounds like a side effect of some work being done on the graphics driver or OS-wide Metal support.

Any of the results +-3% are margin of error in that Geekbench app. We have seen margin of error even high in some cases. No idea why that app is always so inconsistent.
