Anyone know if QEmu or any other solutions 3D support is near or as good as VMWare Workstation yet?
Gpu passthrough, if you can do that will always be most performant.
If you want the qemu/kvm equivalent of what vmware workstation does, than look into virtualgl, which is very good (a wine port on android uses this to get good performace without direct access to host hardware), but it still may not be everything you want.
Ideally what VMWare Workstation does would be preferable as the stuff isn't like super heavy 3D but it needs a little more than what CPU alone provides.
Not directly my experience, but qemu/KVM is used for VM-gaming with near bare metal performance
That requires GPU passthrough. Totally different ballgame in complexity and experience.
