Tim,

you get it wrong, it IS the major point: if AVP is good in performance, 
then an alternative to virtio is needed.

Please, stop turning around the topic, and send facts/numbers that 
demonstrate that there is a value in having alternative to virtio. 
Currently, the only argument is a code developed in 2013 needs to  be 
upstreamed because vhost-user was not available in 2013.

Best regards,
   Vincent
