Hello All,
Can anyone please explain what is the difference between working with
/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 and /usr/bin/kvm emulators?
I have some doubts regarding what is the best emulator type I should supply in
the virsh XML (under ) to get maximum performance of my
VM.
Thank you,
Yan

Assuming you're using a modern Linux, they probably are the same thing. do
"--version" outputs of both have any
/usr/bin/kvm is probably just a script executing
/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 with kvm enabled:
#!/bin/sh
exec qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm "$@"
The /usr/bin/kvm 'executable' is from the time qemu-kvm was a fork of
qemu, see http://wiki.qemu.org/KVM . All KVM features are merged in the
QEMU
