Hi guys,

I have an x86 question that I really hope you can help with:

Running the kvm-unit-tests on x86, I see a quite large difference
between I/O from the kernel, and I/O user (around 6,000 cycles) on two
separate platforms.

This is probably expected, but what is the explanation? If I correlate
with system call overhead from lmbench, it's nowhere near that (in the
hundreds of cycles), so I'm sure I'm missing something obvious.

Thanks!
-Christoffer
