For upstream QEMU I think we're looking at patches that add Hypervisor.framework support for MacOS acceleration -- better to use the builtin support from the OS rather than a 3rd party kernel extension I think. The Android release notes (https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/emulator.html https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/emulator.html) say it supports both Hypervisor.framework and HAXM, with H.f being on by default -- are you saying that H.f has poor performance compared to HAXM?

Oh hey, funny seeing you around here. =) To the best of my memory, I've never used H.f on MacOS with Android. Every Intel image I've used expected HAXM. So I can't tell you either way.

  Yes, it is also a new feature of the Android emulator.
