   Note the difference between KVM and QEMU: KVM is the virtualization   
   architecture built into the Linux kernel, which allows it to run virtual   
   machines of the same architecture type as the physical hardware it’s on,   
   using the virtualization capabilities of that same hardware.   
      
   QEMU is a collection of software emulators for a whole lot of different   
   architectures, regardless of the actual hardware you run it on. It offers   
   sufficient fidelity to the original hardware to support booting of OSes   
   that were specifically written for that hardware. But being software-   
   based, it will usually be slower than the actual hardware.   
      
   When QEMU is asked to emulate architecture X when the physical hardware is   
   that same architecture X, then you can ask it to bring in KVM to run the   
   emulated OS at something close to native hardware speed. Note this is not   
   something that happens automatically, if you don’t ask for it.
