It does have the virtio drivers and the image file is qcow2 not raw. To narrow down the issue this is what I have done.
1) Download CentOS-7-x86_64-GenericCloud.qcow2 from centos.org. Upload to glance and while creating a volume in cinder volume.log I see 250MB/sec download speed. This is normal in our case. 2) Now boot the qcow2 using kvm/virt-manager , add packages, poweroff and upload it to glance , I see 75MB/sec download speed while creating a volume. If I do virt sparsify it then drops to 30MB/sec. Not sure why I am seeing this behaviour. Thanks Paras.
