[Qemu-devel] benchmarks

[Tom Musgrove]

If you plan to update your benchmarks, I thought it might be nice to compare 
to our commercial competetion on linux (and possibly other OSes).

Here is the download page for VMWare both Linux and Windows Versions

Don't forget bochs. (I know its not commercial, but its AFAIK the only
viable free alternative to qemu)

I have been playing a little bit with timing something representative of 
what I have been doing. For this I timed building bash. This involved 
fetching from a ftp server, unpacking, configure, build and install.

native on an athlon xp1600 1 minute 40 seconds
uml (2.4.24) in tt mode      just over 13 minutes
in a qemu (not qemu-fast) virtual machine 30 minutes
bochs took 118 minutes

These are recent cvs snapshots for both qemu and bochs. Used the default 
compile flags.
