Hello,

I have a question about parallel vmexit calls, I would appreciate any 
answer or suggestion.

I have a host with debian 7 (intel i7 - RAM 8GB), the guest OS is also 
debian. I am running a program with some threads, every thread makes a 
vmexit call. Also every thread runs in a isolated vcpu. The problem is 
that the program does not run fluently, it looks like that every thread 
interfere with each other. This situation does not happen when 
separately processes call vmexit simultaneously. The question is: there 
is any restriction (any lock) that block the threads. I am not sure 
maybe libc, RCU, on even Qemu and KVM?

Thank you

Oscar Gracia
