Don't mix emulation with virtualization, coz it's not the same - it's really something completly different. Example:
You have machine A, equipt with a x86 CPU and machine B, with a PowerPC processor installed You can now emulate a x86 CPU on both machine A and B, even emulate a PowerPC CPU on A and B, BUT you CAN'T virtualize a PowerPC on machine A, OR virtualize a x86 on B. Jam it back in, in the dark. |

QEMU does both emulation and virtualization (virtualization with the kqemu kernel module, IIRC only available for x86 architecture). Using virt. instead of emulation should result in a big speed boost.
If you're looking for another emulator then you should try out Bochs. It's not that fast but does a good job, and beware: It does only emulate - the full way. It's like playing your SNES roms with bsnes *g* Most amazing jew boots |

AFAIK hosted on sourceforge, I only tried it once for playing some old DOS game - config was a bit tricky, so you better read the docs first before trying anything.
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
