Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Wilson (wilsone) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: poor/weird performance in sandra (kvm50/acpi/windows) Initial Comment: CPU Model: Intel Core 2 Duo Q6600 KVM Version: KVM-50 Host Kernel: Linux 2.6.23.1 Arch: X86_64 Guest: 32bit Windows XP Sp2 ACPI HAL QEMU Command line: qemu-system-x86_64 -hda /common/stor2/wxp32acpi.qcow2 -m 512 -net nic,model=rtl8139,macaddr=50:17:99:55:4E:90 -net tap & no-kvm: vm won't even boot with -no-kvm Issue: When doing the CPU benchmarks (arithmetic or multimedia), the system takes a very long time and gives a dodgy result. This doesn't happen with a non-acpi hal vm.
