That's pretty impressive (never saw x86 with this exit rate) but it's
more than 1000 times slower than the hardware, assuming 1 fpu IPC (and

will slow to a crawl.

Measuring a typical Gekko application, I get about 200k-250k of fpu
(incl. paired singles) instructions per second.

Virtualized, yes?  What's the rate on bare metal?

Emulated. I can't measure anything on bare metal.

Well, then, the rate may be low due to virtualization overhead. Any way to compare absolute performance?
