Thanks I will try tomorrow then on my i9-7960X.   Performance is not the
goal... "transition" is the goal.
Using same machine - but with a new 4T NVME disk running ubuntu as host -
then run my older CentOS - when needed and the guests that were running
with it.  Hope to over time migrate anything I need to just a guest under
ubuntu. (but need to it work for a while).

Thanks - will try tomororw.
