This is from the perf run on the host:

Baseline:

16.22% qemu-kvm [kvm_intel] [k] free_kvm_area
8.27% qemu-kvm [kvm] [k] start_apic_timer
7.53% qemu-kvm [kvm] [k] kvm_put_guest_fpu

Gang:

24.44% qemu-kvm [kvm_intel] [k] free_kvm_area
13.42% qemu-kvm [kvm] [k] start_apic_timer
9.91% qemu-kvm [kvm] [k] kvm_put_guest_fpu

Ingo, Avi, I am not getting anything obvious from this. Any ideas?

Regards
Nikunj
