    for the semantically inquisitive folk.

    It’s worth noting if you are using this on an arm device, this isn’t a “virtualization VM” any more, as you are using the emulator backend, so this is far closer to a traditional emulator then anything else.

    While the term virtual machine is extremely poorly defined, it could still apply.

    also TCG is as slow as molasses, it’s a good demo, not actually usable for much, at least unless it’s a super beefy phone.

      I might switch to aarch64 to see if it is faster. However, you are right about the slowness. It isn’t bad but it is slow.

      Looks like it’s an x86_64 kernel though? So this is a VM - it’s not running as a paravirtualised system, it’s having to emulate everything from the CPU up?
