I think we have the same problem here: after about 3 GB of transfered data 
with rsync, network (virtio) in the guest stops working (restart of network 
solves the network stop). 

Both host and guest Debian Lenny with 2.6.32. qemu-kvm is version 0.12.4. 
Will try 2.6.34 in guest and report, if the problem still exists. 

Guest starting options:

/usr/bin/kvm -name sysimager -vnc :35 -usbdevice tablet -net 
nic,vlan=0,model=virtio,macaddr=00:08:15:00:09:95 -net 
tap,vlan=0,ifname=tap35,script=no -m 512 -monitor 
unix:/var/run/kvm/sysimager,server,nowait -drive 
index=0,media=disk,file=/vm/sysimager/sysimager.raw,if=virtio,boot=on -drive 
index=1,media=disk,file=/vm/sysimager/daten.raw,if=virtio -daemonize -vga 
std -k de -pidfile /var/run/kvm/sysimager.pid -tdf

No error messages in /var/log/syslog, but via vnc on console. Any hint how 
to copy and paste via vncviewer the message?

Regards
Thomas
