+After hitting 35% installation more or less stalls (it actually doesn't but it progresses 1% a minute which is totally unacceptable).
+
+That was without KVM acceleration, so perhaps it's how it's meant to be.
+
+With KVM everything is fast and smooth.
+
+For integer workloads such as installing an OS you should expect TCG to be about 12x slower than KVM on average. That is on current master; note that TCG has gotten faster in the last couple of years. See a performance comparison from v2.7.0 to v2.11.0 for SPEC06 here: https://imgur.com/a/5P5zj
+
+I've therefore marked the report as invalid, as I don't think the aforementioned speedups will change your experience dramatically.
