bhyve - non *bsd guests

[Scott Pilz]

 	Correct, the hardware itself is a blade off of an Intel Modular 
Server. These blades act and perform (and basically are) like any normal 
server. igb interfaces, SCSI direct access drives, nuttin special about 
the setup. I'll throw the dmesg.boot out here if anyone wants it (but I 
don't think it will help in this case).

 	The *BSD guests running (including the various versions of FreeBSD 
and FreeNAS) are running great (limited to one processor, various memory 
for each ranging from 512MB to 2GB). I ubench'd each system as well and 
they perform nearly as well as the host (the numbers in the end were so 
close it didn't count, in fact). I'm very impressed, and excited, on where 
this project is going. Despite the higher security compared to jails, the 
idea of not having to use dozens of fwds and complicated ipfw statements 
has me truly excited.
