I agree, but let's enable virtio-ioeventfd carefully because bad code

Sure. Note as long as the thread waiting on ioeventfd doesn't consume too much cpu, it will awaken quickly and we won't have the "transaction per timeslice" effect.

btw, what about virtio-blk with linux-aio? Have you benchmarked that with and without ioeventfd?


And, what about efficiency?  As in bits/cycle?
