If the guest runs 'extrememly' slowly then the most like thing is that 
it has fallen back to using QEMU emulation, instead of KVM hardware
acceleration. Check the /var/log/libvirt/qemu/$GUEST.log to see if there
is any mesage about not being able to open /dev/kvm.  Also make sure that
KVM modules are loaded, and that 'virsh capabilities' lists KVM as a valid
domain.
