BTW, for viommu, the downtime data is as below. under the same network

(1) viommu off

Fine.

(2) viommu on
single-round dirty query: downtime 58s

Youch.

Double Youch!  But we believe this is because we're getting the dirty

to get a dirty bitmap across multiple mappings, but QEMU isn't yet
taking advantage of it.  Do I have this correct?  Thanks,

Thanks,
