I have a small write-up how to make it work.
What would be the best place for our community to publish it?

Definitely not 10x slower. On my 4 years old notebook with RHEL 7.2 as L0
I got Win10 as L1 booted in 10s, then CDK booted in similar time as on bare 
metal.
(I would say max. something like 1.5x slower).

Working with GUI in L1 Win10 is locally also quite ok. 
Of course with trans-ocean latency its something different.
