👁 TTSIOD 3D Renderer benchmark with settings of Scene: Statue. 26.04 Devel: Non-CVM was the fastest.
For many of the creator-type workloads the performance overhead of using the CVM instance was minimal.
For video encoding workloads there was a clear cost to using AMD SEV-SNP but not out of line with prior expectations noted by AMD when utilizing Secure Encrypted Virtualization.
