What I've noticed is that it's pretty invasive on the host system. I was trying 
to watch a PAL resolution video with mplayer on Solaris while installing Office 
2007 on the guest, the video on the host glitched a whole lot, including 
jittery mouse cursor. Those were things I didn't have with QEMU.

I was using seamless mode though, so Windows was software rendering a 1600x1200 
desktop, copying it over to the host and blending it with the X workspace. I 
suppose that causes some memory pressure and CPU times to be gone.

I guess you have to draw a line somewhere for better guest performance. Hoping 
it gets optimized, though.
