Just used this guide and posted results here!

Awesome!

Does not need to run as root, or even need sudo. I just ran it on my home KVM host.

Thanks, I figured as much but I was too lazy to check. I'll update my post.

I ran this on the last VM I set up for a FLAMP web app.

Hyper-V Hosted VM
4 vCPU, 12GB RAM
Single Core: 3256
Multi-Core: 10950

Just for fun I ran this on a VM, on our inhouse Xenserver - 4 vCPU.
It's a Haswell gen CPU, so well before Skylake. Surprisingly good single core performance.

@pete-s That's a fast processor!

For comparison, here is my Pi-Hole VM running on said home KVM server.

Really surprised by your results @Pete-S

Which made me check this:

The e3-12xx are beast. This is from Xenserver host, not vm.

Here is results from e5 xeon vm. Same vm, two different vcpu topologies 2s4c, 1s4c

Some difference in multicore performance

[Obsolesce]

Here's one of our Hyper-V Hosts, loaded with 60+ running VMs.

That's better... Run directly on XenServer host
