<p>Hi.</p>
Does the virtualization layer causes any significant impact in the
VM performance, even a high CPU VM that justify the use of this
feature ?<br>
<br>
DPDK for sure is a fantastic feature for networking environments.<br>

Hello John,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This is very interesting news for HPC guys.
Accordingly to the blog post there's a new “CPU
passthrough” function. Which is interesting.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Do you guys are targeting which market? I’m looking
forward for virtual nodes on a HPC environment.</div>

<div>Any intensive workload, CPU and memory bound
especially, would benefit from the configuration.</div>
<div>In memory DBs (SAP Hana, Redis and friends) for
example, MapReduce (Hadoop), etc. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>For some workloads, low latency networking is also
important (especially for nodes inter-communication) and
we are looking at DPDK for it. See[1].</div>
