[vfio-users] Questions for all who have gotten this to work

[Jose Ramon Muñoz Pekkarinen]

    Hi,

    Well APU's are not performance breakers, but even limiting it to a TDP of 45W, the performance is acceptable to play not so oldish games.

    In the hosts I didn't play such a big games but I tested to run Unigine's demoes on the IGP. Performance is similar to my GPU.

    In the guest, I played MGS: Ground Zeroes, Tomb raider(the newest), DAO: Origins, and what the hangs leaves me of Murderer: Soul suspect. No performance issues but as is middle range hardware, I don't put the highest settings.

    About the cores, I allocate the 4 cores, but is shared with the host. If you want some numbers feel free to ask.

    BR.

    José.

Jose, how is the performance on the A8-7650k in host and guest? How many cores do you allocate to the guest?

        Hi,

        Gentoo x86, kernel 4.1.6, I usually recompile it.
        CPU A8-7650k and GPU Powercolor HD5670.
        Online tutorial, ARCH thread, and Alex blog where enough to get it
working.
        3 months, if it can be called stable.

        Best regards.

        José.
