Hello, After looking all over the net and trying some KVM stuff I just want to get some clarification on which QEMU I should be using. I am trying to use virtio with hardware acceleration. Platform Fedora x86_64-kernel 2.6.32.16-150 KVM kernel modules 2.6.32.16-150 Question: Does the qemu-system-x86_64 version 0.12.5 with the -enable-kvm switch have all of the hardware acceleration stuff that is in qemu-kvm 0.11.0? The reason I ask is I seem to be having network performance problems I will save for another email. I have read various message boards indicating that qemu-system does not have all of the acceleration in it yet and others that make me believe it should have all of the acceleration stuff in qemu-kvm. I have tried both and seem to get slightly better performance with qemu-kvm. The version of qemu-kvm came with the installation and I can't seem to find a newer version. I downloaded qemu-system 12.5 from the repository and built it myself. The qemu-system appears to be doing hardware acceleration as the indicators match the qemu-kvm indicators. But since the performance was slightly worse I thought I would check and see if version 12.5 had all of the hardware acceleration that is in qemu-kvm version 11.0. Also, Vhost support is only in kernel 2.6.35 even though qemu 12.5 has support. Is that correct? Thank you very much in advance! Your help is greatly appreciated. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
