are there any benchmarkings (and tools) which i can run inside the guest? are there any official results with which i can compare? my "performance problem" is that i have an image with an applicationserver (python based) inside and this server performs better (faster response times, more request/sec) when run with qemu/kqemu on my 1-year-old-sonynotebook (32-bit fedora7) compared to a quadcore 2month old dell-server (64-bit fedora7) and qemu/kvm :-). well ... it works, but it is a little disappointing. the wrong timer is really awkward, because the time in the guest drifts extremly (about half of real time) so the "ntpd" does not automatically set update time because after some time the drift is so big, that ntpd will not set the system time. i had to disable ntpd and start a cronjob every minute to set the current time! so i only loose every second minute. my timestamps in the database for my webapp are ... well mostly ok. but i cannot use this scenario for a productive system of my webapp. i don't know if this behaviour (rtc/hpe) has impact on the performance (hopefully, because you wrote work in on the way). </usc> ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
