I finally switched to Linux just a few days ago when upgrading my laptop's SSD, and so far I have only opened minecraft to see how it runs - extremely smoothly, even though I could not figure out how to make use the Nvidia GPU. I'd say it runs noticeably better on Linux than it did on Windows.
Unless it has changed recently, I think most distros default to running on the Nvidia GPU all the time: Switching back and forth doesn't always work. (Or at least, that's how my laptop run with Manjaro)
