First of all, I forgot to mention that M.K.'s CurlTiny (7.64?) doesn't seem to work on SF.net anymore, ugh. So I just used Links2 to manually download the source tarball. (EDIT: CURLTINY.EXE won't work, for unknown reasons, but CURLLITE.EXE and CURL.EXE both seem to still work okay.)

Anyways, for laughs, I updated to latest 6.0.x series of VBox (6.0.16) on my ancient non-VT-X laptop (2.2 Ghz). It's actually faster than QEMU on the better desktop: "only" five hours!

Just FYI. (YMMV.)
