Re: [9front] drawterm stuck

if you don't know how to do networking with qemu some people like to
use the libvirt abstraction around it that tries to do most of these
things for you (more like vbox).

personally i think it's better to learn how to do the networking right
with bridges and IP forwarding instead of silly hacks like NAT or port
forwarding.
qemu doesn't really need to do much here, the bridging or IP routing
would need to happen on the outer OS.

httpd is slow, but for controversial pages that might be fine as
you'll have less visitors.
all that benchmarks would show is that httpd is slow, so i don't why
you want benchmarks.
i recommend rc-httpd, it's slower than httpd. it's really good.
