[Discuss] Virt-Manager

[Edward]

Operational speed, not network speed. The Lubuntu team provided Firefox 
as a Debian package in the image and once everything was said and done 
(and networking was running), it would take 30-seconds to 1 minute for 
Firefox to appear, once launched. I didn't test network speeds, but I 
can say that the YouTube home page was extremely slow to load in.

When I had G Boxes on F33, Firefox launched in a matter of seconds in a 
box. This was on the exact same hardware.
