It's completely unrealistic.  Sash and you are the only two people in 
the universe logging into the guest via a serial console and running 
benchmarks.

Because it's another example of an unrealistic approach on your part.  
No real user is interested in 1024 vcpus, and no real user is interested 
in optimized serial console.  It's good that you are bringing up new 
ideas and new code, but adding code just for its own sake is not a good 
thing.
