A comparison of x86 hypervisors (KVM, Hyper-V, Xen, VMware ESXi) and emulators (QEMU, Bochs), covering their architectures, features, and performance. Hypervisors leverage hardware virtualization for near-native performance, while emulators prioritize compatibility via software CPU translation at a speed cost. The article also covers live migration, snapshots, and GPU passthrough.
An overheating 10GBASE-T SFP+ module in a home switch was replaced with a Broadcom-based model, fixing link flapping and lowering CPU temperature by about 5°C, though the new module does not report temperature and impersonates a fibre-optic Intel module in its EEPROM.
