I'm using it in conjunction with PCI passthrough instead of dual boot. I've been running Windows 10 for more than a year now and played all kinds of AAA titles successfully. The performance-loss seems minimal. Recently I managed to get a second GPU and spin up another VM, so now me and my partner can play on the same machine, heaving each a keyboard, mouse and screen.

I have a water-cooled i7 6700k and the rising fan speed was the first thing I heard as well. Normally this does not happen when browsing the web.

Still I think there's a difference in how deep the intrusion goes. I can just not use Google (except it's harder on stock Android phones), but I can definitely go without Facebook by just not using it. Having my own Operating System to spy on me makes me a victim whatever I do. I can't really escape from that.

Yeah, no doubt! As already written somewhere above, the GC is not cheap.

That's exactly what I thought looking at the screenshots and having to look it up from the source is pretty disappointing. Libui is great work and since it seems to be the biggest part of this project, it should be mentioned.

The caption of the last image says: "Visitors can tour the system, which cost $2 billion and was completed in 2006." I hope that's just a typo.

I don't know... The first 3 articles shown on a Google search for "gvfs" are based on that small world of GNOME.
