Hi, I have not experienced any problems virtualizing OpenBSD with KVM, Xen, HyperV, VMware. I have done various performance tests over the years and found KVM to be the best performing, most stable platform for our environment. Those non-scientific tests simulated some of our typical workloads - web platforms (php,js,python), databases, filesystem, running various stuff in a single VM up to 8 different VMs... they were performed on entry level server hardware though: maximum 2 CPU sockets, max 128GB RAM with max 8 SSD/SAS disks.
Haven't tested bhyve yet, but I don't expect it to be faster or more stable than KVM (if you ignore frequent kernel updates ;-) regards > Gesendet: Mittwoch, 08.
