Hey Thomas,
Great analysis, thanks for sharing it all. But I had a question. You
mention setting realtime pri on the VM threads, and how it works with
NO_HZ_FULL. And I was wondering wouldn't you be able to to just use
isolcpus in cmd line to leave the VM cores to the VM as an alternative?

I have 2 Xeon 5540s (4 physical and 4 logical per CPU) currently one entire
CPU is dedicated to the vm (basically what it says in numa 0 in lscpu) I
didn't quite get the guide, what would be the best setup to get the most
out of the vm for gaming? Or is that the best configuration I have atm

Hi Thomas,
awesome work! I've changed my (gaming-)setup (2x Xeon E5-2670 (8 real
cores per CPU)) to the following:
VM1 and VM2:
Each gets 4 real cores on CPU0; Emulator-Thread is pinned to the
respective Hyper-Threading cores.
VM3:
6 real cores on CPU1; Emulator-Thread is pinned to the resp
A while ago there was a conversation on the #vfio-users irc channel about how to
use cpuset/pinning to get the best latency and performance. I said I would run
some tests and eventually did. Writing up the result took a lot of time and
there are some more test I want to run to verify the results bu
