I just copied that from virhostcpu.c

Why?  I don't have any system to copy this from, so I just created the
smallest test that has all the info in it.  It's one socket, one core,
one thread system with only one cache.  More that that is not necessary
unless it actually tests something as well.  In this case everything
else is tested in other cases, I believe.  For now, that is.

I'll rewrite the comments

That makes sense.  Let's try 33M, so that it's at least similar in that.
