I’d give that a better chance of running an ARAnyM with 512 MiB RAM,
forced to CPU#1, with everything else (OS, etc.) forced to CPU#0,
which also means to *not* run irqbalance.

But for “usable” VMs, you want something like this:

processor       : 3
vendor_id       : AuthenticAMD
cpu family      : 16
model           : 4
model name      : AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 965 Processor
stepping        : 3
microcode       : 0x10000c8
cpu MHz         : 3400.000
bogomips        : 6830.30

⇒ about 150-200 MHz emulated
