yeah older linux kernel and using old gcc 4.8.5 compiler, hence why Centmin Mod uses newer gcc 7.3/8.2 compile for nginx builds and optionally for php-fpm compiles How To Boost Centmin Mod LEMP Stack Performance
and why Centmin Mod nginx can be as fast if not faster than any other linux distro's nginx versions

Phoronix benchmarked GCC 9 vs GCC 10 compilers on Intel Xeon Scalable Cascade Lake, and looks like GCC 10 has some nice improvements Intel Xeon Cascade Lake Compiler Performance - GCC 9/10 vs. LLVM Clang 8/9 - Phoronix

Centmin Mod 123.09beta01 supports GCC versions up to 8.2.1 publicly and 9.1.1 (private testing) with GCC 10.x on the books later on for it's Nginx and PHP-FPM builds

Of course, I'd need access to Intel Xeon Scalable Cascade Lake to properly test GCC 10 and see how much better it is
