Abstract :
Suffering from the low performance, conventional emulational device model is the bottle-neck of the whole virtual machine system. Utilizing memory virtualizating technology, a novel virtual device acceleration solution with high performance is presented and implemented by the video device accelerating solution on Xen, which is an open-source project. A test result generated by the specific the benchmark "vConsolidate" indicates that this solution can significantly improve the system performance and scalability as well as ease the I/O bottle-neck.
