Windows 10 - worse performance?
cyb:
I thought I'd try Win10 again, I had trouble with it and groovymame in the past. I noticed that a game that I could normally run with a high frame delay (maglord) was running extremely slow. I did a bench with sound using the method intealls suggested ( -nothrottle -nowaitvsync -nosyncrefresh -notriplebuffer -video d3d) and it ran at 614%. On the very same hardware, only with windows 7, this same bench ran the game at 1209%. Why is there such a large discrepancy here? Has anyone else experienced this? I guess it's back to win7 again. The only reason I was thinking about using 10 is that it's a lot easier to hide the shell with 10.

Win10 blows and sucks at the same time.

I certainly can't disagree with you there.
Calamity:
What happens if you run the same with -video none?

Are you comparing apples to apples? Is it the same identical version and build of MAME? Do both computers have up-t0-date drivers installed, including the Intel Chipset drivers?

Is the "education" version gimped in some way or is it just a different license type?
There may also be problems with version 1709....
