[libvirt] libvirk KVM save (migrate) terribly slow

Hi, I noticed that using libvirt to save running domain is terribly slow, I mean it can take even 10 minutes to save VM with 2GB RAM, although the host is almost idle (8CPU, 16GB RAM). If I understand correctly, libvirt first pauses the vm and then migrates it to file (optionally through gzip). Restoring it back to running state is almost instant. I guess this is not what should be expected, is there something particular I should check? Thanks a lot in advance with best regards nik -- ------------------------------------- Nikola CIPRICH LinuxBox.cz, s.r.o. 28. rijna 168, 709 01 Ostrava tel.: +420 596 603 142 fax: +420 596 621 273 mobil: +420 777 093 799 www.linuxbox.cz mobil servis: +420 737 238 656 email servis: servis(a)linuxbox.cz -------------------------------------
