Re: [ovirt-users] Network performance drop when compared to other hypervisor with vhost_net on for UDP

Hi,

from the top of my head you could try to play with tuned both with guest and host

###Install###
 yum install tuned
 /etc/init.d/tuned start
 chkconfig tuned on

###usage###
list the profile:
 tuned-adm list

change your profile:
tuned-adm profile throughput-performance

maybe try to experiment with other profiles.
