Hello Mr. Eromenko,
thank you for porting this patch on beta version.
As for performance
Command to clone 70 VMs:
$ for i in `seq 1 70`; do VBoxManage clonevm "ZeroVM" --mode all
--register --name "ZeroVM Clone $i"; done
70 VMs, Host-only-interface mode:
I think it can happen because all your VMs have only one interface
vboxnet0 (if I'm not mistaken?). In our case we have separate interfaces
for every VM (/vboxnet1..80/), and all of them are in
//etc/network/interfaces/, so host interfaces list updating takes
significantly longer time.
unpatched:
2:30 min boot. -- 2:33 min (2nd run)
patched: (slower by margin of error)
2:35 min boot. .. 2:34 (2nd run)
What does this time mean? If I understand you right, you start VMs
without OSes, but for simple VM starting this time looks too long...
Timed manually from smartphone, so 1 second mistake is possible. (not
via host OS timer)
We use time field in VBoxSVC log for chronometry (we attached
/VBoxSVC.log/s to first letter). This way you can measure execution time
for specific procedure (/FindHostNetworkInterfaceByName/ in our case)
and see how this patch affects this.
Regards,
Alexander
