Description

I'm running the examples in Apple M1 by using cargo krun.
And I've upgrade qemu to the latest version (v7.1.0).

The examples compile as usual, but run very slow.
The qemu window show nothing and stay freeze for several minutes, and turn gray later.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the examples on an Apple M1 with cargo krun and QEMU v7.1.0, then inspect the example execution path and any available run output to determine why the QEMU window freezes. Done means identifying the cause of the slowdown and confirming that the examples run normally on the reported setup.
