The user land tools for KVM are qemu with KVM extensions (hard ware

I later found that out on wikipedia.
I have not but saw it on a friend's laptop a ?couple of years ago. ?It
was slooow.
Bit slow but fast enough for me on OpenBSD at least.
I can claim to have some patience I suppose. Even as I speak I run
qemu.
If you are familiar with the qemu options, then transition to the
qemu-kvm tools should be close to no-op (at least that is my
understanding not having used qemu at all).
But KVM is a linux thing right?
And there is kqemu acceleration on OpenBSD already. I don't usually bother.
Everything just works and is fast enough for me.
I never guessed that both of us were really talking the same thing.
For me cloud/virtualization/emulation/vmware/xen/whatever means qemu. ;)
