Isn't that a lot of overhead? Do you run your vms concurrently with boinc on the main OS?

No, no additional overhead. For example, on an 8 thread CPU, I would set BOINC to use 7 threads, and the VM to use 1 thread.

I see. I thought you were going to run more vm's than that. Yafu credit is low, so 1 vm per pc would be slow going, unless you have a lot of pcs.

Only about 4-5 running VMs. But with fast SB threads, it will go fast enough.
