      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.

                  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.

                      Some difference in multicore performance

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

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