Hi Anthony Here is one I made as I went along. If it's useful I will move it to the KVM wiki. VirtIO does seem to improve performance of an openGL video game ("enemy territory" used in the paper). However glxgears gets better performance (more FPS) using rtl8139. Perhaps a bandwidth v. latency difference? http://warburg.cs.ualberta.ca/~cam/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=vmgl Cam ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
