I get 141 MB/s on the same test (it only copies to memory anyway). Is your VM under memory pressure?

I don't think so. The host has 128 GB of memory, and even the pre-emptive kernel caching doesn't come close to filling it:

me@host:~$ free
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:     132043960    1742480  130301480          0      84628     826040
-/+ buffers/cache:     831812  131212148
Swap:      1048568          0    1048568

My /tmp should be physical disk in both cases. To be thorough, I also ran the test while writing the output file to /, and got the same results (5.7 MB/s on guest, 144 MB/s on host).

Your guest is only assigned 256MB though.
