That's good.

So if virtio is fixed to be as fast as vbus, and if there's no other 
techical advantages of vbus over virtio you'll be glad to drop vbus 
and stand behind virtio?

Also, are you willing to help virtio to become faster? Or do you 
have arguments why that is impossible to do so and why the only 
possible solution is vbus? Avi says no such arguments were offered 
so far.
