Thanks Dave. I use system emulation, and my main concern is "just" to know that the actual board will run faster than the emulation. So based on your example, and even though my target board (mini2440) is nowhere as fast as a Panda board, this should be the case by a comfortable margin. Now, as I a

[Qemu-devel] emulated ARM performance vs real processor ?

2011-09-01 Thread Julien Heyman
Hi, I was wondering if anyone had some data regarding the relative performance of any given ARM board emulated in QEMU versus the real thing. Yes, I do know this depends a lot on the host PC running qemu, but some ballpark/example figures would help. Say, I emulate a 400 Mhz ARM9 processor on a C
