Played with system emulation a while back. I doubt this is used much in practice. It's very slow for various reasons (no gic, no armv8 arch updates to support kvm virt better, slow sdcard/usb I/O). TCG on a beefy x86 box is roughly the same speed. Also 1G of memory isn't that much even without considering virtual machines. The rpi4 with 4G (disclaimer: don't have one) probably works better. But note they are finally working on a 64bit kernel for raspbian, which I expect is only a first step for better 64bit support. cheers, Gerd
