I am curious about the way instruction emulation happens in the virtual 
system and way that it could be faster.

Is each instruction translated and emulated one at a time? This would be the 
easiest for the developers. My idea is that if the software was to keep a 
list of the most commonly emulated sequences and when one of these common 
sequences of instructions is called rather then emulate them one at a time 
the system would recall the emulation that was previously translated. This 
would use more memory but I think it could drasticly increase the speed of 
the emulation because of the constant amount of calls that M$ OS's repeatedly 
make to the same instructions.

Having no knowledge of how the software currently works, I could be totally 
wrong here. I would like to know a little more about it and if my idea has 
merit.
