There are multiple things in the mix:
NetBSD version
anita version
anita hypervisor choice
qemu vs xen, and version of chosen one
if qemu, whether it is using nvmm
I am guessing you are using qemu unaccelerated.
I would try the old netbsd/qemu and the new anita. I'd be surprised if
that made it really slow -- but if so that's good news as it's probably
easy to fix.
Then I'd try a netbsd 10 kernel on the same system, and if ok, a netbsd
10 userland. FInally I would try a new qemu.
