Hello Fabio, Thank you for the quick response and for confirming the behavior. You're right - the missing CPU flags (AVX, AVX2, VAES, etc.) when SEV- SNP is enabled is expected behavior and occurs on both Ubuntu 24.04 and AL2023. I apologize for the oversight. I guess we are just puzzled on the

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 2095017] [NEW] SEV-SNP Causes Significant RSA Performance Degradation on Ubuntu 24.04
