1) I'm seeing about 2.3% in scheduler functions [that I recognize].
Does that seems a bit excessive?
Yes, it is. If there is a lot of I/O, this might be due to the thread
pool used for I/O.
This is why I wrote the linux-aio patch. It only reduced CPU
consumption by about 2% although I'm not sure if that's absolute or
relative. Andrew?
2) cpu_physical_memory_rw due to not using preadv/pwritev?
I think both virtio-net and virtio-blk use memcpy().
With latest linux-2.6, and a development snapshot of glibc, virtio-blk
will not use memcpy() anymore but virtio-net still does on the receive
path (but not transmit).
