Sigh, the problem is way too many reallocs, repeatedly growing and shrinking
the buffer we use for I/O.

I guess we never noticed this awfulness in the virsh console code it was
copied from, as the data volumes are lower.

Switching to a fixed size buffer makes it massively faster. I'll prep a
patch asap.
