I'm looking to buy a new laptop to run my benchmarks. The goal is that only cpuid and the vmx-instructions will cause VM-exits. The only thing that is missing on present hardware is that it doesn't allow me to disable "cr3 load/store exiting". Therefor I was thinking about replacing my laptop with one equipped with one of these processors:
Nehalem processors shown in your table support setting "CR3-load exiting" and "CR3-store exiting"Primary Processor-Based VM-Execution Controls to 0. Therefore CR3 load/store exiting can be disabled.
