Thanks for the response! How would matchlock microvms perform on a KVM VM without CPU passthrough, or is it not possible?

I'm predominantly using Linux vm workstation with nested virt enabled. It performs reasonably well with nested virtualisation.

I haven't tested the scenario of non-cpu-accelerated workload, but I'd expect the performance to be very poor.

That said it might be possible with PVM as the above thread has mentioned.
