Hi,

There are a lot of messages/threads out there about bad performance while using AMDs Ryzen with KVM GPU passthrough. It revolves all on enabling/disabling npt, while enabled overall VM performance is nice but the GPU performance gives me about 20% (and a lot of drops to zero GPU usage, while CPU/Disk/Ram also doing nothing) compared to npt disabled. But while npt is disabled overall VM performance is like beeing on 4x86 with floppy disk as only storage. (Ex. it takes 2 seconds just to open startmenu while host and vm are in idle, and neither CPU pinning, changing CPU model, changing storage device nor using hugepages changed anything).

So everything I read pointed to a bug in the npt implementation? Anything I could do to get closer to the "thing" issuing this?

Best Regards

efeu
