[libvirt-users] Libvirtd slowness

Hi, Can anyone tell me if it's normal to take over 2 seconds to connect to the libvirt daemon? xen1 ~ # time virsh -c 'xen://xen5/' pwd real 0m2.102s xen1 ~ # time virsh -c 'xen://xen1/' pwd real 0m2.217s Strace shows it sitting for 2.08s on polling the remote socket: poll([{fd=6, events=POLLIN}, {fd=7, events=POLLIN}], 2, -1) = 1 ([{fd=6, revents=POLLIN}]) <2.082839> Not quite sure why though? Experiencing this on both 0.9.7 and 0.9.0. This happens both with virsh and the perl libvirt bindings. If i just spawn virsh interactively I only incur that 2s hit on intial spawn, all commands are very quick and responsive. Anyone have any suggestions? - Nathan -- Nathan March&lt;nathan(a)gt.net&gt; Gossamer Threads Inc. http://www.gossamer-threads.com/ Tel: (604) 687-5804 Fax: (604) 687-5806
