Exactly. This makes a big difference. Using an SSD will also be a winner of course. I do both and performance is good (enough to run AAA games on my Win10 VM using VFIO passthrough of an Nvidia GPU.) This is all done with libvirt. I don't use Gnome Boxes so YMMV. poc _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
