Probably beaten to death: performance and battery vs. Mavericks?

-

so yeah. i'm considering going mavericks due seemingly short battery life yosemite , annoying wi-fi bug (definitely os-related, not hardware).

there scientific test out there comparing performance , battery life of these 2 operating systems? couldn't find any. personal experiences suggesting?
 

the difference in os x versions has less battery life settings , workload put on mac. there many factors impact battery life. see battery life charge section of following link details, including tips on how maximize battery life.

link below should answer most, if not all, of battery/charging questions. if haven't done so, highly recommend take time read it.
