Hi,
I'm using virt-viewer to launch remote desktop connections
The connection to the KVM host is using ssh
The virtual machines/guests are running a GNOME desktop
I've observed some latency issues, for example, changing focus from one
terminal to another is a bit sluggish. Typing isn't too bad.
The WAN connection is gigabit fibre from my home into a local data
center. Ping times are about 0.8ms to the physical server.
Smokeping shows there is no packet loss and the latency is constant.
Can I do anything to tweak the .ssh/config to make it better? It
occurred to me that adding "IPQoS lowdelay" might be useful as it
defaults to "throughput" for non-interactive connections. Maybe
virt-manager should add that on the ssh command line?
Is there any way to see SPICE latency statistics in the virt-manager GUI?
Would any other SPICE viewer make a difference?
Are there any changes I should make to the GNOME desktop configuration
to make it work better through SPICE?
Can anybody make any other suggestions?
Regards,
Daniel
