[Experimental] Fast, lightweight micro virtual machine for cloud streaming — GPU included
nesbox is an experimental Rust microVM manager built for cloud gaming and streaming. It boots a lightweight Linux guest in about a second with a shared virtio-gpu device backed by rutabaga_gfx native contexts, letting many isolated guests render on one bare-metal GPU at near-bare-metal performance (98-102% of bare metal in benchmarks) without any guest GPU driver, using virtio devices throughout.
Why now: It was featured on Hacker News as a fast microVM with GPU sharing, a niche where few alternatives exist.
Who it is for: Infrastructure developers building cloud gaming or GPU streaming platforms who can build custom Linux kernels and Mesa.
