QEMU Accelerator Module
Software (wiki) - urs @ 22:48:36

Not only with a new website but also a new product; QEMU Accelerator Module is now available [1].

The QEMU Accelerator Module increases the speed of QEMU when a PC is emulated on a PC. It runs most of the target application code directly on the host processor to achieve near native performance. It is very useful when you want to run another Operating System (for example Windows) on a Linux desktop.

The QEMU Accelerator is free to use, but it is a closed source proprietary product. But if you or your company is willing to invest into the Acceleerator, the author might open source it.
