Hi Sahar, If I remember correctly, booting the aarch64 ubuntu image you are using in atomic takes around 10-12 min. Until we have got KVM working for aarch64 I’m afraid that is as fast as it will go. Rather than interacting with the simulation, try and script what you want to do, boot, take a checkpoint, and the iterate around what ever region of interest it is you want to capture. If you’re not using KVM, then interacting directly with the simulator can be rather painful.
