that seems low for EE usage.. in SW mode in max, it should be near pegged.. do you have any ee cycle overclocking going on?

screen shots aren't on the same screen.. but I'm noticing the graphics subsystem is pushing itself harder in the windows boxen.. Are you using extra rendering threads in windows that you aren't using in linux?

30% difference, thats no small difference. Yes, you updated your mesa drivers.. but those are open source drivers.. they're written by the community, not Intel.. you're probably not getting a driver that is quite as optimized. I wouldnt expect a 30% reduction though. Honestly, rocking that proc.. easiest fix is to throw a couple hundred at it and get a 1060 installed. You can get mfg written drivers that are quite excellent. It could be a small system or gsdx config here or there.. but my bet is you are configured as well as can be, but the drivers available aren't as good.. I dunno. I'm seeing roughly the same performance.. within 10% or so on a kaby lake and 620 gpu.. the 630 might not be as well supported in the mesa drivers, its the newest kid on the block in the intel world.. I am loath to blame this all on video though..
Second thought.. your chipset might not be as optimized (driver/usage wise) in linux, but I'm doubting that..

I think they have a hand in it.. but I don think they're any better than the ones written in house.. I could be wrong though.. I'm probably newer to linux than you are, at least this time round.. last time opensuse didnt exist, caldera was still functioning, and mandriva was the bomb lol.

Since I cannot find Linux drivers aren't available on Intel site, it makes me wonder at what level of functionality they provide drives... Support could be as little as supplying architecture reference docs, to one guy doing g it in his spare time, to a full team working full time. I don't see Linux drives on their site, so I'm doubting they're full timing it. Plug n play means it works, though it doesnt indicate that the performance is on par with drivers they have officially released themselves.

Honestly the speed impact of the GPU or the driver with SW rendering should be small. Unfortunately I never tested SW rendering with Mesa driver, so I can't tell you the real impact. Hum, the only impact that I could imagine in running the GPU in high performance mode that steal available watt from the CPU (which throttle).

Well I've since gotten a 1050 ti and it doesn't run any better.
