Wow, that&#x27;s a great resource!  I&#x27;m glad to see your disk benchmarks were also all over the place.  I couldn&#x27;t seem to make much sense of CrystalMark&#x27;s results, even when increasing the test size above my RAM size to eliminate caching.  I&#x27;m using virtio to an SSD dedicated to the VM and saw, like you, some markers were better in the VM than they should be, and some where significantly worse.  Very weird.  Luckily I won&#x27;t matter for gaming.
