The percentage-overhead comparison is pretty choice nonsense. It has only percentages to try and "explain" that overheads don't matter if the system is slow anyhow.
A fair comparison would be this project vs virtio.

Virtio? what virtio? virtio native drm native context, is that what you mean? We actually use it in nesbox[1] for AMD/Intel cards.
Venus is the only one we could directly compare to, as it is the only one that supports Nvidia GPUs. vDRM works only on AMD/Intel GPUs and has a similar performance (~98% baremetal performance) to virtio-nvgpu.
