Hi,
vMX 17.2 is pretty hungry to CPU. There is a way to make them consume much less resources. For that, on VFP network adapters 0 and 1 should remain e1000, but all others should be converted to VMXNET3. In VMware that decreases CPU utilization by 50%. Unfortunately, it seems that currently it's impossible to play that trick in EVE.
$p['qemu_nic'] = 'e1000'; - defines all network adapters. Can you please add a feature to change adapter type on per-adapter basis?
Thanks,
P.
e1000 and vmxnet3 selection per network adapter.
