As would reading VMware peoples' publications on the tricks they've used. I'm thinking of a paper which compares VMware's performance on hardware VM (newer Intel/AMD) versus software VM, and finds software is actually faster in many cases. It happens to mention in passing a lot of tricks used by VMware. -- Jamie _______________________________________________ Qemu-devel mailing list Qemu-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel
