Hello, I'm using virt-manager on my F23 box to run a Windows 10 image but the performance is so bad it's killing me. I have "vmx" flag in /proc/cpuinfo # lsmod |grep kvm kvm_intel 167936 6 kvm 503808 1 kvm_intel virtio-win-0.1.112-1.noarch But no virtio modules loaded. Should they be loaded nowadays?
Not on the host AFAIK.
The disk format used is vmdk with no caching and native mode. The io is 100% in windows task manager performing less than 1MB/s Any clues?
What are the figures from the host? What is qemu doing and what are the other processes and devices doing?
