Re: x86 -> x86 translation

Interesting. But is the `KVM` running an `id` function or is the translation 
just quite similar to the original code (but not certainly the same)?

Warm regards,
Amir

  Hi,

the "normal" emulation in QEMU (called TCG - tiny code generator) is
certainly not an identical translation. If you want to run the original code
as close as possible to 1:1 "translation", then you have to use the KVM
accelerator (i.e. use the "-accel kvm" option).
