Did that. But this is on a VPS with no VT-x support. So the module exits with appropriate error. Am I missing out on a significant amount of performance due to lack of accelerator, with the system's main usage being a build server for pkgsrc. And in absence of accel, what best can I do? How do I use paravirtualized Linux guest, and would it do better? Mayuresh
