There is a cache of translated pages, and last I checked (0.8.0 or so) the entire translation cache was flushed when it filled up, rather than trying to do any kind of LRU-style thing. I think of qemu as a processor with a bigger than normal penalty for faulting executable pages from DRAM into L2. :) Rob -- "Perfection is reached, not when there is no longer anything to add, but when there is no longer anything to take away." - Antoine de Saint-Exupery _______________________________________________ Qemu-devel mailing list Qemu-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel
