If that also works, then the problem > is specific to migration, Thanks for the hint Daniel, it is indeed not migration specific - it seems that virs-ssh-helper is just very slow. rm testfile; virsh -c qemu+ssh://testkvm-hirsute-to/system?proxy=netcat vol-download --pool uvtool h-migr-test.qcow testfile & for i in $(seq 1 20); do sleep 1s; ll -laFh testfile; done [1] 42285 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 24M Nov 25 15:20 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 220M Nov 25 15:20 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 396M Nov 25 15:20 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 558M Nov 25 15:20 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 756M Nov 25 15:20 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 868M Nov 25 15:20 testfile [1]+ Done virsh -c qemu+ssh://testkvm-hirsute-to/system?proxy=netcat vol-download --pool uvtool h-migr-test.qcow testfile rm testfile; virsh -c qemu+ssh://testkvm-hirsute-to/system?proxy=native vol-download --pool uvtool h-migr-test.qcow testfile & for i in $(seq 1 20); do sleep 1s; ll -laFh testfile; done [1] 42307 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1.8M Nov 25 15:21 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6.8M Nov 25 15:21 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9.8M Nov 25 15:21 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 13M Nov 25 15:21 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 15M Nov 25 15:21 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 16M Nov 25 15:21 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 18M Nov 25 15:21 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 19M Nov 25 15:22 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 21M Nov 25 15:22 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 22M Nov 25 15:22 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 23M Nov 25 15:22 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 25M Nov 25 15:22 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 26M Nov 25 15:22 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 27M Nov 25 15:22 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 28M Nov 25 15:22 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 29M Nov 25 15:22 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 30M Nov 25 15:22 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 31M Nov 25 15:22 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 32M Nov 25 15:22 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 32M Nov 25 15:22 testfile That is ~150-200 MB/s vs 1-5 MB/s and as seen it seems to start slow AND degrades further.

I already had debug level logs of the migration [1] attached to the launchpad bug I use to take my notes on this. Taken with these configs: log_filters="1:qemu 1:libvirt 3:object 3:json 3:event 1:util" log_outputs="1:file:/var/log/libvirtd.log" You can fetch the logs (of a migration), but I'm happy to generate you logs of any other command (or with other log settings) as you'd prefer them. The network used in this case is a bridge between two containers, but we can cut out more components. I found that the same vol-download vs 127.0.0.1 gives the same results. That in turn makes it easier to gather results as we only need one system. Here are logs of: virsh -c qemu+ssh://127.0.0.1/system?proxy=netcat vol-download --pool uvtool h-migr-test.qcow testfile => ~150-220MB/s [2] vs virsh -c qemu+ssh://127.0.0.1/system?proxy=native vol-download --pool uvtool h-migr-test.qcow testfile => 5 MB/s degrading to ~200 KB/s and less [3] [1]: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu/+bug/1904584/+attachment/5437541/+files/full-log.tgz [2]: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu/+bug/1904584/+attachment/5437959/+files/vol-download.netcat.log [3]: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu/+bug/1904584/+attachment/5437960/+files/vol-download.native.log > Regards, > Daniel > -- > |: https://berrange.com -o- https://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange :| > |: https://libvirt.org -o- https://fstop138.berrange.com :| > |: https://entangle-photo.org -o- https://www.instagram.com/dberrange :| > -- Christian Ehrhardt Staff Engineer, Ubuntu Server Canonical Ltd
