Yes. The lguest plan9 instance has a virtio ethernet driver,
which is a 'wire' to a tap interface on the host. Packets are routed
at the ip level from the tap to the linux ethernet interface by
the linux kernel in the usual way. I'm not sure why plan9 is half
the speed in this situation, but I feel it might be a red herring,
and that the combination of lguest/plan9 isn't terribly efficient
at minimising the context switching that happens when packets are sent
and received.
