Virtualization performance

Can't find benchmarks to measure those two - if someone can recommend one let me know please, thanks. Considering X2-4800 or E6400 based setup - barebones gaming, more for running virtual machines.

Yes i would really like to know this too.

Well i would like to see some VT benchies compared to none supported VT chips, more so.

I am using three VM?s ATM (in a testing environment at work), to test a few different software implementations and one replication server. Currently running the VM's on none VT chips, which means, it is slow very slow compared to the host OS.

Is there even software support in Vmware or VirtualPC yet for hardware accelerated VT?

Parallels has hardware VM support, but from what I've seen the hardware method is actually SLOWER. Doesn't make sense but it seems to be the case right now. I'll try to dig up some benchmarks for you.
