G'day, I have a host running two kvm guests. One of them gets

I think I've figured this out. I created a 3rd guest to test and with iperf I
was getting nearly 2Gbit/sec. I found the only difference was the interface had
<model type='virtio'/>, so I added that to guest A and then had much better
network performance. I'm guessing that was ommitted because I had used an older
version of libvirt/virtinst when initially creating the guest (whichever version
comes with lenny). I still don't know why one guest was much slower than the
other, but it seems like it's all good now.
