Eric,
Thanks. v0.9.10 was giving me a lot of trouble, so I just compiled two versions of the test code in the cover letter. One uses the patched libs and one the unchanged libs.
N.B. I compiled the patched version using the following change due to the issues with using 65536:
/* Upper limit on lists of storage pool names. */
-const REMOTE_STORAGE_POOL_NAME_LIST_MAX = 256;
+const REMOTE_STORAGE_POOL_NAME_LIST_MAX = 7084;
Results:
With the patched version of libvirt installed and unpatched libvirtd running:
