I have just tried it. The good news is that kvm is now able to boot a Hurd system, this what no the case with kvm-12. The bad news is that kvm-14 seems to be a lot slower than kvm-12 + modules from kernel 2.6.20. This is the case with a GNU/kFreeBSD guest. kvm-12 was about 1.5 time faster than qemu + kqemu. kvm-20 is slower than qemu without kqemu... Does anybody have an idea about this performance regression? -- = .''`.
