Is it me or intel processors virtualize badly ?
I use qemu-kvm A LOT.
And i often noticed that 4-5 year old athlon 64 or phenom are much faster than newer core i3 when virtualizing OS'es.
Does anybody else noticed that ?

I can't say which complete system that you have would be better since we have no specs or comparison tests. I know the core i7 smokes most of the amd processors in just about everything. I only have limited use of a core i5.
I guess it may be some clock or power setting slowing it down.
