Hello John,
This is very interesting news for HPC guys. Accordingly to the blog post
there's a new “CPU passthrough” function. Which is interesting.
Do you guys are targeting which market? I’m looking forward for virtual
nodes on a HPC environment.
Any intensive workload, CPU and memory bound especially, would benefit from
the configuration.
In memory DBs (SAP Hana, Redis and friends) for example, MapReduce
(Hadoop), etc.
For some workloads, low latency networking is also important (especially
for nodes inter-communication) and we are looking at DPDK for it. See[1].

Hello!
Just a quick heads up that there is a new post on the oVirt blog:
Introducing High Performance Virtual Machines
<https://ovirt.org/blog/2017/10/introducing-high-performance-vms/>
In a nutshell:
oVirt 4.2.0 Alpha, released on September 28, features a new high
performance virtual machine type. It brings VM performance closer to bare
metal performance. Read the blog post.
