I don't think you are understanding what Rosetta is. It reads the
binary of one machine and "Compiles it on the fly into the binary of
a new machine". The result is the the new machine is not
interpreting the other machines instruction set, but conceptually
recompiling at the binary level and executing at machine code speed.
This method introduces very little overhead. You should see 80-90%
of native speed. I can live with that. A good virtual machine might
give you 10% of native speed. That is why I keep telling you that
this is revolutionary and will change the nature of cross platform
development. But for now Apple seems content to just use it to make
their transition seamless for the users and developers.

True but I think Rosetta will be much faster than a VPC solution

Chris thinks it might be slower as Morphing is more difficult than
creating a virtual machine. But, with the faster processor, perhaps
it will work out fine.
