I've installed several emulators on pc like bluestacks, ld player, memu etc. They always ask for enabling VTx from the bios setup to increase it's performance. So I would like to know that enabling VT on our pc increases the performance of Games in DarkMatter too?
Thanks
Really , I doubt it .
Houdini doesn't use any virtualization, it is a translation layer that works closely with the android system but it manages things like threads and memory allocation.According to my logic, houdini is related with virtualization, because it lets you run arm architecture apps/games on x86 architecture.
I think enabling VT on bios is usefull.
Correct me if there is wrong info.
That houdini you ar talking about is thisI know that Houdini is basically a 3D animation software used in most operating systems
You copied almost whole thing from a blog post - https://commonsware.com/blog/2013/11/21/libhoudini-what-it-means-for-developers.htmlThat houdini you ar talking about is this
but the houdini we are talking about is known as libhoudiniHoudini (software) - Wikipedia
en.wikipedia.org
libhoudini is a proprietary ARM translation layer for x86-powered Android devices. It allows an app that has NDK binaries for ARM, but not x86, to still run on x86 hardware, albeit not as quickly as it would with native x86 binaries.
Given ARM’s near-stranglehold on the Android ecosystem, libhoudini is hugely useful for Intel and hardware vendors interested in using Intel’s mobile CPUs. Without it, only apps that ship x86 NDK binaries would be compatible with x86-powered devices like the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1” tablet. Some developers probably skip x86 NDK binaries, because they are not aware of popular x86-powered devices, or lack one for testing, or are concerned over APK size. The Play Store for x86 would shrink substantially from the million-plus apps available to ARM devices, to those that do not use the NDK or happen to ship x86 binaries. libhoudini makes ARM-only NDK binaries usable on x86, giving x86-powered Android devices access to more of the Play Store catalog.
Qemu can operate in two modes, it can emulate whole OS runtime as you said (virtualization)Because AFAIK it has to emulate a whole operating-systen runtime. While Houdini is only translating some arm-specific calls natively as a helper-program.
Qemu use dynamic binary translation, you can read about it here https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_translationAny references for this statement?
